What if they go 22 years without winning any postseason game of significance?
Scott Woodward will give them a $100 million dollar contract that is 90% guaranteed.

There are many coaches that will never make the playoffs. Will there be a better HC out that would want to give a try and take a gamble?
That is correct. And their pay reflects that.
The top ten or twelve highest paid are held to a higher standard
The expectations for Alabama football are higher than they are for Kentucky football; just as expectations for Kentucky basketball are higher than they are for Alabama basketball.

I would just expect Sark to start catching a lot of heat much like Kelly did if he continues to lose semifinal matchups.
I am sure if he comes close but doesn’t seal the deal there will be some grumbling.
But it would be lunacy for any AD to fire a coach who is regularly making the playoffs.
The fact is, regardless of what he does, some fans will want him fired. Some Alabama fans called for Saban to be fired at various times over the years. There aren’t many game threads here when someone doesn’t demand their coach be fired immediately. The best threads are when one fanbase calls for their coach’s head in the first half, but they come back in the second half and the other side demands their coach be fired.
Remember, people here live and die possession by possession. If a team scores they can’t lose, if they have to punt they are doomed. This place is the world champion of overreactions.
If any of these top paid coaches go 5 years without a playoff appearance though, chances are they will be fired/forced out.

Any logical person can understand that not all playoff wins or major bowl wins are equal
All of Brian Kelly’s playoff and major bowl wins are equal.
Equally imaginary.

So Brian Kelly at Notre Dame is considered great and acceptable if this is the standard?
You asked if Sarkisian would keep his job, not if he was great. Who has said Sarkisian is great other than you?
Both Kelly and Sarkisian have made the playoffs twice. Sarkisian has made it the last two years in a row while Kelly has made it once in the last six.
No one will consider either great unless they win multiple national championships.

Do you believe Steve Sarkisian will still be the Texas coach if he doesn't deliver a national championship in the next 5 years?
If he continues to win 10-12 games most seasons and makes the playoffs at least a couple more times, yes.
If he reverts back to 8-5 and 9-4 seasons, no.

Any coach at a big time program without a national championship is the same, IMO.
So you believe that Chad Morris or Deshaun Foster are the same as Kirk Ferentz or Steve Sarkisian?

In the last three years:
Lanning has a conference championship, a playoff appearance and a NY6 bowl win.
Sarkisian has a conference championship, an additional conference championship game appearance, two playoff appearances in a row.
Deboer has a conference championship and a playoff win.
Bellichick is a head scratcher but he has won Super Bowls.
Riley has underperformed and is on the hot seat.
Deon is a marketing/media personality more than a football coach.
Kelly has a division championship. If he doesn’t make the playoffs this season he will be in trouble. If he does make the playoffs then he will likely retire at LSU.

Ryan Grubb is going to stick his foot so far up the LSU defense’s arse that Blake Baker is going to spend the second half of that game in the injury tent with Nussmeier.

Don’t forget about the highest paid assistant in college football. They had to pay him too.

0-2 at LSU. But you are well aware of that.
