OutKick's Dan Dakich sounds off on columnist's discipline after odd Caitlin Clark interactions

OutKick's Dan Dakich talks Indy Star Gregg Doyel getting taken off the Indiana Fever beat for the rest of the WNBA season.

Indy Star columnist Gregg Doyel was removed from covering Indiana Fever games for the rest of the season on Tuesday after odd interactions with Caitlin Clark.

OutKick host Dan Dakich wondered Wednesday on his show "Don’t @ Me" what it would take for Doyel to actually get fired from the job. Dakich praised Clark for handling the entire situation in the way that she did, but he wondered what the newspaper was actually doing in his case.

"He’s so creepy, you can’t have him around a women’s basketball team, yet that’s not enough to be fired," Dakich said. "What’s enough to be fired? If that ain’t enough to be fired, you tell me what is enough to be fired. That’s where we’re at here in Indy."

After Doyel was criticized on social media for the interaction, Dakich said the issue for him wasn’t the "antics."

"This issue is: Why would a male reporter feel compelled to speak that way to a female athlete? Why is it OK for Caitlin Clark or any female athlete to be spoken to like that? Creepy, condescending voice, putting some type of relationship in it. … And other reporters laughed along," Dakich said in April.

"What makes Doyel and the others bring that into the room? That is the bigger issue. And it ain’t going away."

Gannett told Fox News Digital that Doyel was off Fever games. Veteran sports writer Bob Kravitz first reported that the columnist received a two-week suspension.
