NCAA season 101

[BroadyNZ]

As per Philstar, Jevy Hinoguin is now with Baste. Also expected to return is Paeng Are. Maybe he hasn’t played yet in MPBL.

Also as per that article, coach Arvin will still be part of the coaching staff. Maybe to stop Cocolife recruits from leaving. Salute to coach Arvin for doing the greatest sacrifice in order to bring back the glory of Baste.

Coach Yuri of SBU has brought along Aldous Torculas in the Talk ‘N Text practices. One of the pitches that lured Aldous to the Den is the possibility of playing for the three PBA teams of MVP and also the possibility of getting employed there after his playing career.

Will all the players stay?

Ronquillo is being recruited by La Salle and NU.

And as per our source, Labagala is not sure yet whether he’s going to be the HC but he’s part of the coaching staff. But there’s still a chance for him to be the HC but he’s appointment as HC is not yet final. And the signing with Starhorse did happen today.

That's why you dont get backers that are not graduate of your school. In an instant if they decide to leave the program suffers and most especially the players will suffer.

I somehow agree to this sentiment. For the part of Baste, we have alums who are part of political clans like Chavit, the Soledads and other alums who have background in politics. We also have alums who are business people but I do believe it can’t match other big programs in the UAAP and NCAA. So we have to rely on outside source.

The realistic scenario that I think would happen to Baste in the future is how Mapua does things. We could have alumni support foundation to support Baste’s MBT. But just like in Mapua, even though they have alumni support, they still have to rely on sponsorship outside their alumni support for better funding. At least even though Abra left them, they don’t have to do a total reset.

But I think what Baste is currently doing is brilliant. By having 2 major sponsors, the program doesn’t have to do a total reset in case the other one leaves. AFAIK, Cocolife is still with Baste as of the moment. I’m just not sure whether they could come to terms with Starhorse. But just in case Cocolife leaves, Baste has an option to look for another sponsor to replace the Cocolife sponsorship if their agreement to Starhorse permits them to do so. That’s just the temporary solution while we don’t have a regular backing from our alums yet.

Bautista, Bonleon and Ronquillo are all friends. I’m assuming its Bonleon who recruited them to sponsor Baste. And most likely a package deal. If one goes away, the others follows. This explains the buyout to Bonleon’s contract mentioned by Tiebreaker Times.

Ronquillo’s Cocolife was the chief patron of the Red Cubs where Brodette and Silva were consultants,

I’m guessing maybe the reason why Silva is in the mix for the coaching position is because of his connection with Cocolife. Maybe Cocolife and Starhorse is trying to strike a deal. I certainly hope for it to be the case. Coz we heard Cocolife is trying to bring in a UAAP HS standout to Baste. If Cocolife leaves, that won’t happen anymore.

But I do believe if Cocolife and Starhorse manages to strike a deal, it would be a win-win for all parties. Imagine Cocolife having a partner who has a PBA team. And I heard Starhorse is a really competitive organization who wants to make an impact right off the bat. If they manages to make a deal with Cocolife, they could keep the Cocolife recruits and make an impact for season 101 already for their first year in Baste. But definitely it would be Baste who will benefit most if this eventuality happens. Oh well, I certainly hope for this to happen.

The coaching change lines up with the tbt article listing candidates yesterday. But apparently as one of the users here stated coach arvin is connected with cris bautista not really with cocolife. If cocolife leaves, will the recruits stay?

Not sure about that either. The official announcement is expected to be released within the week.

Not sure if Cocolife is still going to be onboard or if Starhorse is open to working with Cocolife.

According to our source, Starhorse is buying out the contract of coach Arvin. Don’t know if it’s for them to do a full takeover or for them to have the say of who will be the Head Coach.

I believe Jackson Chua Jr. is one of the main figure in Starhorse. It also says on his profile that he’s connected to Phenom. Not sure if he’s still connected with Phenom though.

Yesterday, Snow dropped a hint that Starhorse-Baste is a done deal already.

According to our source, the choice is between Rob Labagala and Rodney Santos. Labagala is the obvious choice as he is connected with Basilan. I don’t know if Rodney is connected with the Starhorse group or if Starhorse is open on getting coaches outside their stable.

So its gonna be cocolife and starhorse for baste now?
