No Ur Phoe - Joakland Golden Showers

[RainbowsandUnicorns]

Oakland plays their home games at the O'rena.
Oakland is not located in Oakland. Oakland is located in Auburn Hills Michigan.
Oakland University is only 9 years older than me.
Oakland University accepts over 90% of its applicants.
Oakland University has about 13,000 undergrads.
Oakland's sports teams were known as the Pioneers until 1998 when they became the Golden Showers. I mean Golden Grizzles.
Famous Oakland alum include.... David Hasselhoff (who did not graduate from OU) and Kendrick Nunn (who if I am not mistaken attended OU for just one year/season).


Oakland Basketball is coached by Greg Kampe. Kampe has been at Oakland for longer than some of you have been alive. To me, he looks a little bit like what you would get if Bob Huggins, J.B. Pritzker, and Tom Penders, got together and had a son.
I believe he is the longest tenured coach in the NCAA D1 Basketball.
He won his 700th game against Defiance. Here is a mind blower. He was born in Defiance Ohio.

Oakland's top scorer is DQ (stay tuned for learning what DQ stands for) Cole at 10.7 ppg and their second leading scorer is Tuburu Naivalurua at 10.3 ppg.
According to ESPN - DQ shoots 27.5% FG and 20% 3pt
Their leading rebounders (plural) at 7.7 rpg are Naivalurua and Jayson Woodrich.

Oakland is 1-2 with a 75-52 win against Defiance and a 87-43 loss to Boise State and a 66-54 loss to the Fighting Illness of the University of Illnessnois.
