The Let It Fly Show is back with a full slate from hoops to the Huskers. Mike'l Severe and Josh Jones sit down with Creighton legend Mitch Ballock to talk about his Bluejay career, his journey from small-town Kansas to Omaha, and what it takes to be an elite shooter. Then the guys turn to football: what Nebraska must do to bounce back against Michigan State after the bye.
