THE story of the NCAA tournament so far has been the Nebraska Cornhuskers and their Cinderella season and run in Oklahoma City this past weekend. One of the great subplots of the Oklahoma run by the Huskers was the overwhelming fan support that followed Hoiberg's crew to OKC. Unless you were there, it's hard to describe what happened, but in this special narrative podcast, I'm going to try to tell you the story of what happened this weekend in OKC from the ground view. For our family, and more specifically, for our oldest, this was not a story of this weekend, but it was a story that was finally finished after seven long years . . . Enjoy "Four Days in Oklahoma"
