I've read somewhere else about Oak being a really good community guy. It's good to know that there are people in this world that use their advantages to help out other people. That shows a lot about his character.

Didn't he get like two degrees or something? Or graduate early? I remember the old college basketball announcers loving this guy because of his brain power.

He graduated in 3 years if I remember correctly.

That beats the heck out of my 4 and a half years

seriously though... gotta love Mek. seems like a guy that just seems to get it. not just basketball and fame, but life in general. we could stand a few more of these guys in sports.
