On Veterans Day, the Michigan State Spartans will take on the North Carolina Tar Heels in the inaugural Carrier Classic. The game between the two storied college basketball programs will be played on the deck of the USS Carl Vinson.
I can’t think of a more patriotic, unique way of kicking off the 2011-12 college basketball season. But what do Tom Izzo and Roy Williams think about playing on the aircraft carrier? Check out the videos after the jump to listen to the two legendary coaches.
