        • Upom reading the full article he doesnt plan on leaving yet. He said thats there has been interests but he's not really entertaining any of it in the moment. Seems like if they wont have their way that sga will handle the program, they atleast want a coach that could win. He and the rest of the of the phenom boys are in a wait and see approach til ue hires their head coach.

          Imo, best options are Coach E and Coach Boycie. Aside from winning it with NU, coach eric altamirano has done wonders when it comes to our grassroots program, and this could greatly boost ue's recruitment in the future. As for coach boycie, most of the ue peeps i know seem to want an alumni to take over. He's also had some success with the program before and maybe 3rd time is the charm for him with the red warriors. Also note that both coaches are favored by phenom.

And even if the zobel party countersue, if the arandia assailants are minors, they wont be criminally liable while the other hand arejola and the other company are. From the looks of it this is prolly the reason why the zobel party hasnt released a statement yet. Either they need things to cool down or they're still gathering evidences for their defence.

            As for the Rich always wins adage, it may actually bite em back. While public opinion is never admissible in court, no judge will attempt to screw this up due to the backlash they might face from it, heck no politician will touch this, even ones from la salle since itll negatively affect em in the next election. It helps that arandia is channeling david v goliath vibes and them pursuing this could bring positive spotlight to the school. They might believe that a school defending their own may lead to increased enrollees.
            Arejola was one of my high school hoop heros (played in the post-Perry Ronquillo and pre-Juno Sauler days of Zobel hoops so his coach was Elmer Reyes who wasn't and X's and O's guy and just wanted to push the ball quicker than the defense could set up). Just seeing him get on the 2001 DLSU roster after 4 years on Team B was like Rudy Ruettiger for Notre Dame. The guy willed his way to being relevant enough in basketball to have a career out of it as if that's the only thing he knew what to do despite the fact that there were definitely way more talented PG's in his era who are literally driving taxis in the province now... because they never went to a La Salle or an Ateneo.

            Some of you might be too young to remember or even unaware of an oddly identical incident 10 years ago in Cebu, football match between Ateneo de Cebu and a provincial high school team from Alcoy town. Alcoy player slide tackles an Ateneo de Cebu player from behind (a risky move that merits a red card if tackle doesn't even touch the ball or slighty touches another foot first), Ateneo player goes down, then some adult from the crowd invades the pitch and lays a beatdown on the Alcoy player, then other adults got involved either trying to stop the fight or join in, it looked ugly on still photos but it looked even uglier on Cebu's social media: you got the burgis and predominantly Chinoy side actually condoning the guy (who later identified as a Tito, not a dad of the player) with the "I would do anything to protect my son" argument followed by the more-ridiculous "Would you take a kick from a 5'7 minor in cleats?" argument against every online troll imaginable that could speak Bisaya. As a then-resident of Cebu those days, I thought it was fckng hilarious... just like how I saw this one.

            I don't feel any sort of emotional connection to Zobel anymore like I did when I went to college over two decades ago. Maybe it's because of the fact that I saw from the outside looking in how the school changed from being this bastion of well-roundedness and balance to that school where artistas and kids that play golf and now pickleball as a pastime go to. But yeah, it is what it is here.​

                  You got it mixed up, Juno's much older and graduated HS in DLSZ 1990. Same year as Northport's Mikee Romero who also played for DLSZ . Other players around Arejola's time were Jason Webb, Luigi Trillo, DLSZ coach Boris Aldeguer his brother Dino and ADMU's Sison twins. The DLSZ era of Coach Uichico.

                  A lot of this is a result of Arejola's (deserved) fiery reputation. If you ever played in DLSZ alumni games, you'd know what I'm talking about.

                  Arejola being absolutely wrong, a parent joining an altercation to protect their children and a minor posing as much danger as an adult can all be true. What's amusing for me is when people make blanket black and white statements.

                    I think what he meant by the Juno reference is his period as coach of the Juniors team (not as a player).

                    Arejola is much younger than the players you mentioned. I think he was either batch 1997 or 1998 in Zobel. Jason Webb was 1991, Luigi Trillo was 1992, Sison Twins were batch 1993. Dino Aldeguer batch 1994 or 1995.

                    I don't think Jong Uichico was ever a coach for the Zobel basketball team.

                          Hmm probably just joining the training, also saw topex and a couple benilde players there too. Charles tiu said they wanted amos in the roster but dlsu apparently said no. Also tried to get qmb but was asking too much daw.

                              Unless something 'magical' happens, diamante will only be 12th grade this year so he's ineligible for any collegiate team. His teammate manalili is the one graduating to college this year.
