No, Amos committed to DLSU a long time ago before the FIBA experience, which is when the news broke. There's photo evidence that he spoke with Mayor Zamora to talk about DLSU before FIBA too.

There was an Ateneo insider who claimed that Mason left Ateneo because of the promised higher allowance and the chance to play the wing position, among other things, which never materialized.

Mason himself said he would have gone straight to DLSU because of his mom's ties with the school for college, but Tab's persistence won him over. He initially only committed to Ateneo High School, not college.
Mason Amos is only eligible to play for 2 years at La Salle under the new UAAP eligibility rules for transferees right?

Yes, the ruling for now is he's eligible for S88 and S89. However, with technicalities surrounding the time of which when he enrolled to DLSU, La Salle can appeal should Mason choose to maximize his eligibility. The board remains open to discuss this when the time comes.

Homer Sayson tweeted that a coaching change in one of the storied men's basketball program is coming. That end of an era hint suggests its someone who's been with the team for a long time. Tab is the current longest tenured coach in the league. Also makes sense considering the record ateneo is in now and the players they have in the team now.

Homer is close to Tab and his crew so that makes sense.

He posted an ensuing article and elaborated that the program has been rooted in victory so yeah no doubt that its tab. Anyways he also said two other coaches are in the hot seat. I think one of them is nash racela.

Sir live_e
cc: and to all active IBN members


just for discussion sake,

your mentioning one and done right?

is Sage a 3rd Gen hafu thru his paternal Ilocano grandfather?

how about to those 2nd Gen hafu who's mother are all Philippine born just like Maria Pizarro

worth mentioning those 2 current US Div. 1 hafus that may re-consider for next season's UAAP surely they like Adobo as well

both lads are in their early 20's but not yet reaching the 23 yr. old range

and as we all know they are also eager to represent PH Gilas basketball a long time ago

but unfortunately several head scratching moments and events happened esp. during covid days

6’7 SF Freshman Thomas Batties II of Harvard Crimson a 3-star prospect from Gonzaga HS in Washington, DC of class 2023. Probably 18 going 19 these 2024 but still growing, thanks to his African genes. I’ve seen a few games of the Crimson these season and I’m impressed with his length and wingspan(almost 1 Blk and 1 Stl with 4 Rebs. per game this freshman season), reminds me of a young Kelly Oubre, Jr. but with a good shooting mechanics and a good fit as a utility guy. Harvard Crimson ended their season with a 14-13 record good for 5[SUP]th[/SUP] place at the Ivy League Conference.

6’5 SG Sophomore Travis Roberts of Jacksonville States Gamecocks from Bishop Walsh High School in Cumberland, Maryland. Probably 19 going 20 these 2024 and a good fit as a utility guy with a decent length and a wingspan despite limited minutes,

hmmm maybe contemplating in playing in UAAP or NCAA is a good option moving forward.​

Another upset on UE. I think Jack Santiago gets fired if they dont make the final four.

And with that UE loss, DLSU is assured of a twice to beat advantage. With a win over NU later, UP gets the second advantage.

UE still have UST and UP in their schedule. only team that can bump either UST and UE out of the picture is Adamson as FEU still have both La Salle and UP in their schedule.

problem is there are no outcry from the UE community and even mad when someone will make a critcism for coach jack.

Thats what happens when the community got used to the losing year after year. Any time the team performs decent, they rejoice. Personally im still not a fan of his, sure there have been improvements but still not enough to win me over. Most of their wins were not that definitive.
 
20 pt loss for UP. 29 to's. 9 with cagulangan. Pretty sloppy basketball for them today.

I've said this since last season. Force UP to become a halfcourt team, that takes away a substantial part of their offense. Their defense is a crutch. That weakness is magnified when they have an exceptionally bad game on offense.

Credit to NU's effort and Napa's adjustments. Slowed the game to a crawl and took UP off-rhythm.

And this is why I feel like teams have figured out how to beat them. They play physical and pesky defense that forces turnovers which fuels their running game. In the half court, they don't generate enough offense off sets. Horrid execution and without a true PG, that offense suddenly looks subpar.
