Joe Paterno’s onstage meeting with Duke basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski will air at 8 p.m. on Thursday on ESPN.
“Difference Makers: Life Lessons with Paterno and Krzyzewski,” was taped on June 20 in front of an enthusiastic audience of 900 in Penn State’s Eisenhower Auditorium. The program also will air on ESPNU at 9 p.m. on Thursday.
Paterno and Krzyzewski joined host Reece Davis of ESPN in discussing a variety of subjects, including leadership, teaching, values, the impact of family and rules changes they would like to see implemented.
The hall of fame coaches also took questions from the audience and from Duke students on the Durham, N.C. campus via Cisco Telepresence technology.
Former Nittany Lions Matt Millen and Michael Robinson and former Blue Devils Jay Bilas and Jay Williams also took questions from Penn State and Duke students.
