Keith,
I got a different impression. The game was on ESPN - Dan does 2-3 games/ wk in Midwest for them. His take on IN's tourney chances was merely passing on the network's predictions which was shown on a screen graphic listing IN on first 8 out of the brackets. 
Dakich has a daily talk show here in Indy noon-3 & the majority of his listeners tweets, calls, emails consider him as  Hoosier basher (Kentucky as well) even though he played & coached in Bloomington. 
I thought he was much more pro-Hawkeyes than IN on the telecast.  One nugget was his reporting that Jok admitted that he wasn't 100%.  He much prefers Fran over Crean. 
btw,  the Hoosier fans are bitching bout the 'excessive' fouls called on the Hoosiers. 
Another observation was the many moving screens called during the game - on both teams. 
Go Hawks!

They were 5-9 in the B1G, a conference that can't even put a team in the top 16.  Sure, they beat a couple of strong teams earlier, but Dakich kept mentioning that they can win games on the road with (I think), Maryland and Purdue to send them dancing.  He might as well have predicted that they will win the Big Ten Tourney and go to the Dance.  At the same time he wrote off Iowa for even the NIT.  Give that guy an Indiana mike and keep him off the BTN!!!
