I know Dr. Tom said he won't make any decision on changes in the coaching
staff until the end of the season, and I believe him. However, looking at
the team's performance, the non-answers from BC and co., and the remaining
schedule, it looks like that decision will be fairly clear cut by the end of
the season.
Here's an interesting speculation about who the next coach might be:

(Can't find a direct link, so scroll down to the post entitled "Who will be
the next head football coach at Nebraska?")
The author's candidates in order of probability:
Paul Johnson, Navy
Jim Grobe, Wake Forest
Bo Pellini, LSU
Bronco Mendenhall, BYU
Joe Glenn, Wyo
Turner Gill, Buffalo
Interesting discussion of each coach, too. These are the criteria TO
will/should be looking for, according to the author:
1. Integrity beyond reproach
2. Understands the demands of coaching at place like Nebraska
3. Wants to stay at Nebraska for a long time and make this his last job
4. Is committed to reestablishing Nebraska's football identity as a
hard-working, over-achieving, championship goal-setting, and winning
football program
5. Fits in with the fans of the Nebraska football program.
Although Terry Bowden is interested in coaching again, the author contends
TB would not be a good fit for NU.
