Indianapolis radio host and ESPN college basketball commentator Dan Dakich finds himself in hot water yet again. Dakich is under investigation for comments made on his radio show about an Indianapolis high school basketball coach firing, according to the Indianapolis Star.

IndyStar reports that Dakich went on a 5-minute rant on his radio show Wednesday, lambasting the firing of Scottsburg High School’s basketball coach, calling a player a "methhead," urging listeners to go "take a dump" in Scottsburg and threatening, "I may just drive down there and beat the hell out of every school board member."

Dakich went on to make even more sensitive remarks, calling Scottsburg a town full of "meth and AIDS and needles.”

On Friday, Dakich's employer, WFNI The Fan, told IndyStar it "is aware of the statements made by Dan Dakich earlier this week and we continue to investigate the issue."

Emmis Communications, which owns ESPN affiliate station, went on to say in a statement that, "Dan apologized (Thursday) to his listeners who were offended by his comments and passionate opinions about the situation. Listeners tune in to Dan's weekday show for his strong views and frank manner. When we hear from our listeners who have been offended by Dan's opinions, we take those matters seriously."

At a Wednesday meeting, the Scottsburg school board voted not to renew boys basketball coach Brent Jameson’s contract. Jameson compiled a 41-57 record over four seasons and had led the program to back-to-back winning seasons for the first time since 2005-07.

"Tone is important people," Dakich said as he came on the air today, via IndyStar. "Sometimes you can’t get tone out of newspaper articles and things. Sometimes what's funny when said or trying to be funny doesn't come across."

Dakich was suspended by the station in October for one week for failure of 'journalistic principles.’

“Dan Dakich will not be appearing on his show this week,” WFNI wrote in a statement to IndyStar. “Dan and Emmis have mutually agreed to a suspension period of five days due to a failure last year [2018] on Dan’s part to adhere to the journalistic principles valued by Emmis.”

Dakich is known for criticizing media reactions and will commonly point out that he doesn’t consider himself a media member. He’s been particularly critical of Indiana’s basketball program, where he both played and coached. Per IndyStar, Dakich criticized both current coach Archie Miller and Romeo Langford, lamenting that the former didn’t know how to use the latter, and that Langford couldn’t shoot. He blasted Miller’s assistants, calling them not “good enough to be on the IU staff,” and even called Miller a “chicken-(expletive)” coach for his comments after a 15-point home loss to Nebraska during the 2018-2019 season.
