I, for one, am hoping that the Nebraska job doesn't come open for quite
a few years.

If Bo flops (which seems a bit unlikely given his first season), the
task facing the next coach would be astronomical.

I don't really see another college team, even one with unlimited funds,
hiring Bo away from the Huskers at this point.  The NFL is a somewhat
different issue, though.  

However, if Nebraska did turn out to be in the market for a head coach
in the next few years, Turner Gill is the kind of person I'd like to see 
it go to.

But he's now in a position to be to Buffalo what Bob Devaney was to
Nebraska, and those kinds of opportunities don't come along very often
in life.
