UAAP season 86

[ja.he]

four games remaining for Ateneo in the elimination round but I don't see them winning this time in the final four. there are even doubts if they will make it.

looks like Tab is on his way out.

lol at willie wilson putting some colors on jacob cortez watching the la salle game yesterday. can't blame them tho. no nelle and nonoy next year all the pressure will be on rubico.

Don't they still have David next season? Plus Alao (Is Alao still with them?) and Ethan Alian are true PGs. I think they have San Agustin as well.

I noticed this too. Not sure who was subbed to match up better, maybe Belmonte or Briones. Policarpio also seemed to have some problems on defense laterally. Not sure which UP guard blew by him.

Briones was also lost on defense though he never really switched to Policarpio. He was guarding Quiambao in his short minutes off the bench.

I guess that’s the problem with some of the players of both squads. The ones who are good offensively often still have a lot of defensive shortcomings. I noticed the same with Policarpio in DLSU and Belmonte of UP. Supporters of both teams wonder why both don’t have more playing time, and that’s the reason.

I don't think he will leave just yet. Tab still has one more year on his contract after this. Also, MVP (or Ateneo for that matter) is not the type to usually replace a coach after one bad year (see: Bo Perasol).

That said, I do agree that Ateneo's final four chances are getting bleaker and bleaker.

UE making the most of a thin roster.
Fikes, Wilson gone and they still making it tough. Remogat might be the best PG prospect we have locally

How was Remogat able to fly under the radar?

[dubidub]

i dont think anyone expected remogat's game to mature so quickly. during his rookie year, he was a guard who always looked for his shots. he was a loose cannon who often got the ire of his coaches. even during the last games of the regular season last season, it was only his scoring that popped off. but this offseason, he really controlled his shot selection and started to display his great court vision.

How tall is Remogat?

IIRC, Remogat was the back up to Penny Estacio at FEU HS. In another similar scenario years back at San Sebastian HS when Paul Lee was a back up or played second fiddle to Eric Salamat. Lee was never heavily recruited and tried out at UE where he was offered only a Team B spot.

Nic Cabanero was a bench guy at San Beda HS. The starring guard there was Winston Ynot.

These kids were never heavily recruited because they were back ups and role players in HS.

How was Remogat able to fly under the radar?

he was a FEU baby tam. nephew of RR garcia. his teammates during their time Anonuevo, Sleat, Estacio, Padrones, Abarrientos, Bautista and even Pasaol (his rookie year). spending more time in the bench than playing. Knowing FEU they have a tons of guards no room for him. But i know they offered him to stay in team B and good decision for him to try to the other schools as walk in. Good pick up by UE. He's 5'9" guard

"you can only see the pain in Jerom's eyes as he is unable to play for his team" yeah dude, im sure he's worried about his middling UAAP team more than his career
