Salary Plus Bonus

Bloomington, IN: (May-15-08) Dan Dakich has been locked in a legal wrangle with Indiana University over issues related to his severance. University sources revealed that Dakich replaced Kelvin Sampson after the NCAA accused Sampson of five major rules violations in February 2007, leading to the varsity giving him a $750,000 buyout.

As part of a recent development, college officials stated that a settlement was reached in the case with Dakich, in which Indiana University agreed to pay him the $185,000 he was scheduled to earn next school year. Records say that Dakich was owed a base salary of $110,000 with a supplemental bonus of $75,000.

Dakich played for former Indiana University coach Bob Knight and later was an assistant under Knight. His latest records show that he went 3-4 in the Hoosiers' final seven games and lost in the first round of the NCAA tournament to Arkansas.
