Local coaches: No on Prop 2
Okemos MSU basketball coaches Tom Izzo and Joanne P. McCallie denounced Proposal 2 Monday afternoon, saying the ballot initiative would harm diversity in the state. They were joined by several other collegiate basketball coaches, including Tommy Amaker from University of Michigan and Ernie Zeigler from Central Michigan University. Izzo urged Michigan voters to oppose Proposal 2. "We should be trying to take steps forward," Izzo said.
