Dan Dakich is entitled to his opinions. He’s also a 58-year-old man who seems unlikely to change them. Dakich remains entrenched, and he’ll be damned if anyone tries to persuade him into acknowledging the validity of a different point of view.
This, of course, brings us to the latest Dakich kerfuffle. The Indianapolis radio talk show host and ESPN college basketball analyst made some objectionable comments last week after a heated Twitter exchange about student-athlete compensation.
Dakich could have argued in a reasonable and respectful way. He could have called for a stalemate. But that’s not on brand for someone whose Twitter bio reads: “Family Motto: Sack Up.” He has been called out for misogynistic comments and doxing on his radio show. It’s not entirely surprising for a guy who has been in hot water before.
