A graduate of Andrean High School in Merrilville, Dakich is remembered for his excellent defensive play, especially against Michael Jordan in the 1984 NCAA tournament. After graduating, Dakich joined the Hoosier sideline as an assistant coach to Bobby Knight, and stayed in that position until 1997, when he received an offer to become the head coach at Bowling Green. He stayed there for ten years before returning to Bloomington to become director of basketball operations at IU for the 2007-2008 season.
