Things are looking good for SBU .
Like last year, pundits did not place then in the team to beat category. Hehehe.

The ACL injuries to Bismarck Lina and Ronrei Tolentino have spoiled the preparations and the odds of SBU. But just like last year when Sanchez, Ynot and Cometa left coach Yuri has instilled the next man up mentality of his team this year.

Well those pundits dont know anything, most of us here in ibn knew whats up with beda haha. Most of us here had them as a final 4 team. Even this year, as defending champs, its foolish not to count them as contenders. Personally my only doubts for their season 100 team is who will step up in Jacob's role and if the thin big man rotation will work.

The biggest question each team is facing this coming season:
San Beda: How will the team fare in the post-Jacob Cortez Era?

Mapua: Can Clint Escamis maintain his MVP form especially now he'll more than likely be marked man this season?

St. Benile: How will Charles Tiu balance his duties with Converge and CSB?

Lyceum: Is the trio of Guadana, Bravo and Barba good enough to lead their team in the Final 4?

Perpetual Help: Who's gonna step up now that their entire starting lineup from last season is gone?

Jose Rizal U: Can Argente handle the load in leading this team?

Emilio Aguinaldo: With his 'guys' in tow can Coach Jerson Cabiltes finally lead Eac to the final 4?

San Sebastian: Did they make the right move in moving on from John Kallos after year 1?

Letran: How far can Coach Allan Ricardo lead this very young team?

Arellano: How good really are Coach Chico Manabat's new recruits for the season?

Man as much i want ncaa and uaap to merge, i dont think its possible logistics wise. 18 teams is just one too many. Even in US Ncaa div 1, the conferences with the most teams have only 14-15 teams. I believe itll be more interesting if they follow how division 1 works. Have the most prominent leagues like, uaap, ncaa, ucal, naascu, ncraa, cesafi etc. join in one mega inter collegiate umbrella, allow some inter league play, establish a legit national tournament ala march madness and crown a national champ.

Remember when we had guest teams and people were clowning us for having a longer than usual season? Plus I don't think it would be feasible for the networks to cover all the games

Yup the logistics in itself will be a challenge. Tho i always love watching some interleague play, especially against team outside the uaap and ncaa that are solid.

They can have to divisions. Then have the top 4 teams of each division comprise the quarterfinals. In terms of groupings, they can adapt the fifa world cup system.

Have 2 media outlets cover the league so as to avoid legal disputes on existing tv coverage rights.

Csb was defeated by another KBL team; LG Sakers by 6 points recently. It is the current team of Carl Tamayo and also had former benildean Justin Gutang as its asian import. Same as the Mobis game, they didnt have their World import with them but were still bigger than benilde regardless. Similar to Mobis, LG Sakers are currently in the country and is scheduled to face other collegiate teams

Yeah I do think so this is the best thing to do. A prestigious national championship to win it all. A pre-season league like fil-oil won't just make it.
