Kaya pala yung isyu kay borboran o kay custodio ba yun ng UE nawala na lang bigla e nu? Sabi daw binenta daw yun laban nung isa sa mga players ng UE sa UST! Binayaran daw ng UST yung player na yun para ipatalo yun laban. Bakit bigla na lang nawala yung isyu na to? Kasi hindi inimbestigahan ng UAAP yung pangyayari kasi syempre nga naman pag lumaki pa ang isyu masisira ang UAAP. Ganito ba ang magandang pamamalakad? Sa NCAA kapag may isyung lumalabas iniimbestigahan hindi katulad sa UAAP. At kung tatanungin niyo kung pano ko nakasigurado na totoo to? Sabi kc sakin ng mga kaibigan ko sa UE kalat daw ang balita na to sa school nila pero hindi na pinalaki kasi nga makakasira sa UAAP. Yan ba ang tunay na sports? @itsme,

Ako ayoko makipagmerge ang NCAA sa UAAP. Bakit? Simple, dahil gaya ng mga sinasabi ng mga UAAP-member school hindi pa sila handa igiveup ang history nila, well ganun din ang pananaw ko, para sakin hindi makakabuti ang merger para sa NCAA. Kaya naman makipagsabayan ng NCAA sa UAAP. Kung history lang ang paguusapan sino ba ang mas may rich na history? Ang NCAA o ang UAAP. Well alam niyo na kung ano sagot ko diyan. Kung titingnan natin ang history di hamak na mas maganda at mas may napatunayan ang NCAA. Mula ng nagsimula ang NCAA pinakita na nila ang tunay na ibig sabihin ng isang collegiate league. Ang UAAP ngayon pa lang nila nakukuha ang status ng isang magandang collegiate league. At isa pa ano ba ang UAAP noong 80's nung panahon na wala pa ang ADMU sa UAAP? Wala! para lang silang minor league katulad ng CUSA na hindi kilala sa bansa, kaya wala kayo karapatan na magyabang. NCAA has withstood the test of time. Hindi niyo pwedeng sabihin na natalo niyo ang NCAA dahil noong panahon na wala pa ang ADMU at DLSU sa UAAP. Walang kwenta ang UAAP! Pero ang NCAA napatunayan nila na kaya nilang maging isang magandang collegiate league kahit na wala ang ADMU at DLSU. Pero ang UAAP hindi pa nila napatunayan yun dahil noong time na wala pa ang ADMU at DLSU sa UAAP, walang kwenta ang UAAP! Tigilan niyo ang pagyayabang na mas maganda ang UAAP kesa sa NCAA. Hindi kailangan ng NCAA ang UAAP para maging magandang collegiate league sila! Napatunayan na ng NCAA yan sa pagsubok ng panahon! NCAA will always be NCAA! UAAP will always be UAAP! History of the NCAA will never fade! NCAA's contribution to the history of basketball in the Philippines will never be gone.

UAAP is UAAP. NCAA is NCAA. If people really wanted to see these two leagues play, then watch it on CCL, Fr. Martin, Home and Away,Nike league, flying v, and other basketball leagues. Sorry if I may have biases but what makes UAAP the most prestigious university league in the country is because of the Big4. Without them, it would really damn suck. Do you really think that the country will benefit on this merger thing of the 16 schools?? If they really wanted whats good for the country, why wont you include the schools in the South. In my opinion I think the NCAA is just levelling up with UAAP. Many would disagree but love it or hate it, its up to you. If I were to belong in an NCAA-member school, I would really love a merger. It will give me an idea na ka-level na namin ang Ateneo, La Salle, UP at UST. Even if UAAP may not have the best teams in the country (NCAA defeated UAAP all stars), but admit it or not they are really the ones making UAAP the premiere collegiate league in the Philippines. Kahit pa kulelat ang UP sa basketball, we must face the fact that the School is still one of or not, the best in the country as a whole. UAAP is not only all about basketball and i know NCAA is as well. Its all about school pride. The players are students and if you really wont understand it, then let your school produce your own league with Major in Sports Minor in Academics. I have no grudges against NCAA but the league will surely be long and too early. If you really want to see the big picture, the whole merged basketball league will be almost a year. these players went to school to study and just with the consolation play for their school. Sa tingin nyo ano ang matutunan nya qng 1st year to 4th year college, apat na taon siya naglaro lang ng basketball.

UAAP organization is holding its nose up too high up in the air, i think they're putting themselves in a very high up in the mountain where no body can reach them. true that the league has its history, but it doesnt hurt to make new HISTORY. as for MIGOY's comment, STUDENT ATHELETES ARE GIVEN SCHOLARSHIPS FOR A REASON, THEY EXCEL BOTH IN ATHLETICS AND ACADEMICS, THEY CHOOSE TO BE BOTH SO THEY KNOW WHAT THEY'RE GETTING THEMSELVES INTO. i strongly disagree with UAAP right now.i believe that to truly crown the best collegiat programs in the country, all should compete under 1 tournament. for example, the ncaa tournament in the US, they have different divisions, but over all, they combine 1 playoff system that determines everything.
