Problem is, they're on year 6 of a 3 year build up. DLSU's hyped rookies are not developed and replaced yearly by other equally hyped recruits if they don't perform immediately. Where are Marata, Parades, Sara, Tolentino, Elorde, Paredes, Gotladera, Gallarza, Batricevic, Malabes, Martelino, Tallo, et al?
In contrast Juami Tiongson, Pessumal, Monfort and now Elorde were brought along slowly and developed by Ateneo. This year, they'll be playing prominent roles while DLSU is pinning its hopes once again on a team of rookies and sophomores and a rookie coach. What makes DLSU so much different from Ateneo? Culture? Alumni interference? Based on the games I've seen Gotladera play, I can say that he'll be a great player for Ateneo. DLSU's garbage will be developed into gold by the Ateneo staff.
Which brings me to back to the alleged 2 a day practices. Eight hours for practice, 8 hours sleep, 3 hours of class leaves 5 hours to eat, take a bath, commute and socialize with friends. Parang trabaho na, I'm being facetious but with this treatment, they should apply for the benefits of the kasambahay law. They seem to be employees rather than students.
