EP 85 - Colin Shannon, Director of Basketball Operations, Oakland University

Coach Colin Shannon,
In this episode, you’ll hear from Coach Colin Shannon. Coach Shannon is currently the Director of Basketball Operations for Coach Greg Kampe at Oakland University. This is a pretty cool conversation. For starters, Coach Shannon is only 24 years old. However, I truly believe that his story can IMPACT some younger coaches. If you are a Student Manager or a Graduate Assistant or thinking about entering the world of college basketball, then this is conversation for you! Coach Shannon has been with the Oakland Basketball Program since 2016, holding roles in the following capacities: Student Manager, Assistant Video Coordinator, and Graduate Assistant. He also talks about his time as both a student manager and the the head freshman and junior varsity basketball coach at Royal Oak Shrine High School from 2016 to 2020. I am so appreciative that Coach Shannon helped coordinate past podcasts with Coach Covington, Coach Jones and Coach Smith. Without his help, I would have not been able to come to Oakland and tell their coaching stories. In conclusion, I applaud Coach Colin on many levels. To have the amount of loyalty, love and passion for Coach Kampe, his co-workers, the players at Oakland, and this university is really inspiring. Finally, you will hear that Coach Shannon truly wants to coach and he is no doubt making a lasting impact with Coach Kampe’s program.
