Dan Dakich, a 61-year-old basketball sportscaster, has spent decades involved with basketball as a player, assistant coach, interim head coach, and inductee into the Indiana Basketball Hall of Fame. If there’s one thing being a diverse basketball figure teaches you, it’s a ton of valuable lessons. In an era of basketball where players look forward to multi-directional pathways, including leading their team to victory recently seen during the March Madness cut, to further launching a professional career, one can easily profit off some advice.

Given it’s March, the collegiate tourney has been overtaken by March Madness bling, which gives spring’s top basketball prospects even more attention. Piercing through the March Madness wave, Dakich recently sat down to offer the players some complimentary yet valuable advice.

Spilling words of wisdom amid March Madness craze

Dakish advised the young players, “Stay focused don’t get in trouble go to class if they’re in school out them around spring break and for God’s sake remember how we got here don’t start thinking you’re a star.” For Dakich, the March Madness experience is more than simply a set of matches; it’s the value of maintaining perspective despite the chaos of pressure and excitement. However, like any other sports fan, how does one keep calm in anticipating what’s about to happen next?
