Former Indiana quarterback Zander Diamont and Indiana basketball and coaching alum-turned ESPN analyst Dan Dakich set out to hurt each others feelings this weekend on Twitter.
It all started over comments to a tweet Diamont made about Indiana football coach Tom Allen, and the way that his love for his players is positive. Diamont also definitely was throwing some subtweet shade at former Indiana head coach and current Ohio State offensive coordinator Kevin Wilson.
I love that @CoachAllenIU promoted love and support on his team. Seems like a no brainer but a lot of these coaches are insecure.

Nothing better than a coach that gets genuinely excited about and for his players. That's what real leadership is. That tough guy nonsense

But anyways, on to the whole dispute. Here's where it ignited.
U got to talk the truth like @dandakich ....

Legs and big bacon are great!
But the truth always draws fans!
After that, Diamont set in on Dakich, and well, it became a bonafide verbal boxing match.
But not a quitter!! Is there anyone alive over 18 that gives a rats who you like or what you think?

So yeah, to dissect a little — I'm not certified in these things but the clear winner of the Twitter Fingers Trophy here is Dakich.
