ang tanging problema lang naman jan ay ang pagpayag ng kanikanilang liga na maabolish ang kanilang liga na matagal na nanjan hal. 84th season na ncaa at 71 season na uaap sobrang tagal na ng liga nila na ayaw na nila mawala, paano na lang kung ng merge cila ano na lang ang itatawag sa kanila? at ciempre cino ang mamumuno sa liga kung sakali, hindi ba, parang BAP lang yan ayaw nilang ma abolish kahit mayron na SBP di rin cila magkasundo sa mga lider nila, kaya napakaliit ng tsansa na mag merge cila

suggest ko lng ang Phil. Collegiate Championships ay gawing 32 team format para mas masaya at exciting at mas marami collegiate teams makasali. at sana rin ang mga collegiate team champions sa ibat-ibang Collegiate teams sa buong bansa ay automatic seeded na gaya ng sa UAAP,NCAA,NAASCU,NCRAA at sa iba pang mga collegiate leagues sa buong Pilipinas,bukod pa sa mga collegiate teams na galing sa power rankings. sana malaman ng organizers ng Phil. Collegiate Championships. Tnx!

@aquitectos_tigre. You said: “pero pg ng merger ang UAAP at NCAA sana masunod ang rules ng UAAP na kahit ngaaral sa mga skuls ng UAAP ung player pag walang dugong pinoy ay HINDI pwede mglaro para matignan talaga kung sino malakas na team at para din mabigyan ng chance ung mga ibang pinoy na gusto maglaro.”
You must have forgotten that both Ateneo and La Salle do have foreign players with absolutely NO Filipino blood at all? So there is NO existing rule in the UAAP that prevents foreign players from playing. However, there are rules that (1) only two foreign players per team and (2) only one of these two foreign players can be fielded at any given time.
Same rules as in the NCAA.
So I don’t think the “rules” can be considered a good argument for a possible merger. Whatever the differences, I don’t think they are major anyway. Madali pag-usapan yan kung talagang gusto nila.
I think the bigger issue might be that with more teams in the combined league, the season will take a whole lot longer and not finish before the semester is over. The same is true for the other sports. Pero kalokohan din itong palusot na ito! The US NCAA is at least ten times bigger (in terms of number of total number of teams participating, games being played, and events being contended) than our collegiate leagues here and yet they are able to manage the schedules to allow athletes enough time to spend for their studies.
Pag ayaw, maraming dahilan…. at the end of the day, it all boils down to this: Pinoy-style factionalism and “pataasan ng ihi”.

@ Marnel Tuble “why is it that San Beda students buy tickets to watch AdMU-DLSU games live in the arena and yet opt only to watch the games of their school on TV?� This, despite the fact that San Beda is well regarded academically and is probably the most popular college in the NCAA whose popular alumni-luminaries are among the country’s top leaders. Now, how much more to the lesser-known NCAA schools?
I don’t know about San Beda students but I know this to be true for a number of Bedan alumni who, like me, attended either Ateneo and La Salle in college or post-grad studies later in life.
Given the fact also that San Beda’s GS and HS departments are now in faraway Tanay, depending on where they live, a lot of Bedan fathers that I know (again, I am no exception) would now rather send their kids to either La Salle or Ateneo and would occasionally accompany their kids to the games.
