Nice article from the links on the home page about Solich: huskerextra.com/sports/football/article_4f1e5e15-b415-5d8e-89e1-8af9fa374129.html.

How does another 10 years sound?

"I'm not going to say that," he said with a chuckle. "But I don't feel any different than I did 10 years ago."

More key quotes that give an idea what he is thinking:
Solich, in LJS article wrote:expand_more
"I want to go until I tire," he said. "Not retire -- but tire. Tire out." ..."Believe me, I'm not a tired guy."

Solich, in LJS article wrote:expand_more
"After Nebraska, I figured if I could take a program and really build it -- I mean, really build it -- then I'd feel pretty good about my coaching career and be able to look back and feel comfortable with it,"

Solich, in LJS article wrote:expand_more
"When you're in a business, and you get this kind of satisfaction and enjoyment out of it, it's easy to keep going,"

Look at the fans on this board. Ohio may not have the most fans of any team in the country, but they have some of the best fans. It's no wonder Solich feels welcome, appreciated, and that he has the time and room to build a program the way it should be built. One final quote, on the pressure he feels to win Friday:

"Now, is it a do-or-die deal? You know, it's not that. The progression will continue. But we have a chance to get it done this year."

From my reading of  the article, three words come to mind to describe coach Solich:
 
Gentleman

Style

Class

Here's hoping he's our coach for a long,long time.

Works for me.  I have a 10-year-old son who wants to go to Ohio.  I hope Solich is there when my son gets his  diploma from The Ohio University.
