A WTHR reporter (Indy) disputes IU's version of it in the above story. His source is likely former IU recruit A.J. Ratliff.

They have both been dismissed. Dan Dakich is on Indy radio right now and that is how it went down.

broad, in all fairness, that's Dakich's version of it. Whether it's the actual version of what took place is another matter.

true true.... but I don't think he would have any reason to mislead. He's a lame duck. Actually both of the players have had prior run-ins with Sampson let alone Dakich. I think this last incident was the straw that broke the camels back. Also... the guy from wthr is awful and I'm sure Ratliff was his source.
