NCAA Season 100

[gospursgo]

Always great watching CSB during warmups since it turns into an impromptu dunk contest hahaha.

Damn, that Anton Eusebio pic is badass haha

Letran Squires is no stranger when it comes to maxed out playing years but has not graduated HS; Roi Sumang (2008) and Bong Quinto (2012). Both needed to finish a year in HS after maximizing their playing eligibility.

Just incredible to find out that Diamante still has two more years in HS. By the time he graduates high school he will be 22.

Great opening day matchups! We'll see how beda will play without a solid big man rotation and how CSB and Mapua's rejigged lineups perform when the games finally matter.

Lina and Etulle were not in the US training. But were included in SBU’s recent team building. Also present in the team building and US training were Adrian Sollano, Menard Songcuya, Zane Jalbuena, Xavier Gentles and Inigo Torres. Coach Yuri is keeping it quiet with regards to his big man rotation for Season 100.

Sollano seems a bit raw but if there's still a spot in the reserves left maybe the coaching staff can include him to give him a run during blowout games or atleast give beda a body against the bigger bigs from the other teams like Umpad or Capulong. Imo beda's frontline will be the best come season 101 with both gentiles and hopefully a much improved sollano manning the paint.

San Beda to submit 18 man NCAA roster today.

I think Etulle makes it at least in the reserves together with Lina.

Either torres or etulle.

Either torres or etulle.

It can be tagala but he is the presbitero and lim of this batch lol

Actually tagala plays like presbi. Both can hit 3s and are liability on defense.

Etulle can be a will navarro. However, he should be playing 3 or 4 IMO. I dont think he'll be effective as a 5.

After everything Kai Sotto has been through (US, Australia, Japan) he's just currently the same age as when Diamante will graduate HS. That's wild.

Well, KQ started playing in college at 21 so it's not that far off. The problem is when a lot of guys do this (being 1-4 years older for the batch) then the players with the correct age are at a big disadvantage and will have to usually wait in Team Bs or be bench players. Legitimately good players will be dislodged by players who are only better because they are older (which is why some mediocre college players suddenly blossom in the pros and vice versa).

It will be interesting to see a chart showing the average age of college players through the years. I still remember a time when 16 year old college players were common.

And I don't buy the K-12 excuse, regular students I know still graduate HS at 18 and 19 at most.

Former SBU Red Lion Anjo Caram was only 16 years old when he debuted in 2007 as a true freshman coming from Iloilo. Other freshmen in this batch were Dave Marcelo, Garvo Lanete and Alvin Padilla coming from the Red Cubs. The latter were all 18-year old freshmen. There was no K-12 at this time.

Caram was relegated to Team B in 2008 and elevated back to Team A in 2009.
