I get all that, and can accept guys who aren't pro-Marquette.  But why the he!! was he thinking (and thus talking) about Frank Kaminsky, Iowa's lack of team unity and college football during a Marquette-OSU game?

Why was he talking about Kaminsky? It was relevant to the conversation. I believe he was talking about Amir Williams and how some guys never live up to the hype and that transitioned into guys who didn't get the hype but became great players like Lavert and Kaminsky.

Why talk about Iowa? It was a conversation about how teams need to be on the same page if they want to win.

As a basketball fan, I love these ind of conversations and think it adds immensely to the broadcast. Dakich was very flattering to MU and wojo, but, sorry, I don't want just that for 2 hours.

He mentioned multiple times that Marquette is TOUGH and fought really hard, acknowledging we simply didn't have the firepower that OSU had. He mentioned multiple times how well our zone offense worked. He complemented many of our individual players - including but not limited to Carlino, Johnson, STjr, Cohen. He specifically complimented a number of passes/assists our players had, even more so than OSU (other then their irritatingly easy ally-oops).

He's just a typical short-sighted, stubborn Indiana good-ole-boy who is biased towards big ten because that is his only universe. I'm from Indiana - I know plenty of them. They're harmless. He was fine.
