NCAA caging likely to be scrapped
08/24/2007
A ranking official of the beleaguered National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) yesterday revealed plans by the management committee (Mancom) to scrap the league’s ongoing 83rd basketball season if San Beda College will contest its decision to suspend its ace player Yousif Aljamal for joining the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) rookie draft last Sunday.
According to the source, the eight-man NCAA Mancom which advice the league’s policy board consisting of presidents and rectors of all participating schools, will not hesitate taking that drastic action to put an end to what the source branded as “a hostile reaction” by the Red Lions’ management on Aljamal’s suspension.
The “suggestion,” the source said, was made during one of their recent meetings.
San Beda, led by its rector and president Fr. Mateo de Jesus, sought a 72-hour Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) from the Manila Regional Trial Court Branch 33 after the NCAA policy board suspended Aljamal for the rest of the season for joining the PBA draft. The NCAA Mancom, however, shortened Aljamal’s suspension to just three games, but De Jesus and his battery of lawyers averted this by securing a TRO.
Also, he claimed that although the league knows the repercussions of such plan, including the possible withdrawal of advertisers and its broadcast partner, cancellation of the season remains as the only solution to impede San Beda from bringing the Aljamal case to court. He said such action will derail the operations of the country’s oldest collegiate league.
And it seems the league is headed toward that direction as De Jesus admitted San Beda lawyers are going to ask for an extension of the TRO which expires today.
De Jesus claimed that even if the league calls off all games, San Beda officials believe they are standing on high legal ground and the series of unfortunate events that rocked the NCAA “is not our fault.”
De Jesus also stressed that taking the case to court is their legal right and nobody, even the league, can take that away from them. He also said it will not have any direct impact on their relationship with the league.
“We don’t regret any of our actions, especially bringing the case to the court,” De Jesus said, guaranteeing that the school won’t be the first to blink in this latest controversy that rocked the country’s oldest collegiate league. “There have been continuous TROs left and right in the previous years, but it didn’t tarnish the teams’ relationship with the league or among its member schools. We’re open to settle this thing in the board room, but we’re doing this to fight for our right.”
Just last month, National Bureau of Investigation operatives arrested a player and several other persons for involvement in illegal gambling in the NCAA. It was not the first time that players in the NCAA were linked to illegal gambling activities, although it was the first arrest ever made in connection to the gambling claims.
Mancom met late yesterday along with their legal counsels to tackle its next course of action on how to parry San Beda’s legal actions. They are also set to meet today to formally announce Aljamal’s suspension.
San Beda, meanwhile, relieved its representative to the mancom, Fr. Paul de Vera, allegedly due to his failure to object to the decision of the Mancom. Albert Almendralejo will succeed De Vera, inheriting management of the school’s athletics department and tons of headache caused by the raging issue.
De Jesus, however, strongly denied De Vera was relieved.
“No, he actually asked to be relieved. He already has three campuses and two schools to work on and the WNCAA (Women’s National Collegiate Athletic Association) and NCAA South are about to open. We decided to let him go since we need a full-time person to represent us in the Mancom,” De Jesus said.
Meanwhile, Letran College tries to formally clinch the second semifinal berth when it tangles with San Sebastian College today at The Arena in San Juan.
Game time is set at 4 p.m. after the 2 p.m. encounter between listless College of Saint Benilde and University of Perpetual Help Dalta System.

Aborting NCAA cage season a Mancom option
By Marc Anthony Reyes
Inquirer
Last updated 04:54am (Mla time) 08/24/2007
MANILA, Philippines -- Abort the 2007 NCAA basketball season altogether.
This was among the possibilities the NCAA management committee considered during a meeting Thursday ahead of Friday’s meeting of the higher NCAA Policy Board.
League sources said at least three member-schools are pushing for the scrapping of the basketball tournament if San Beda College succeeds in getting an extension of the temporary restraining order (TRO) it secured from the court Wednesday against the league’s decision to suspend Red Lion stalwart Yousif Aljamal for the rest of the season.
Aljamal -- penalized for joining the Philippine Basketball Association Rookie Draft last Sunday without securing permission from the league -- went on to lead the Red Lions past the Jose Rizal University Heavy Bombers, 82-74, in their game Wednesday.
Aborting the cage season would hurt most the defending champion Red Lions, who are already in the Final Four with a 9-1 record and remained the favorite to retain their title.
The same sources said the Mancom, after meeting with lawyers from host JRU and Mapua Institute of Technology, may also go for tamer measures like forfeiture of San Beda games where Aljamal was fielded, or even a reduction of the penalty slapped on the Red Lion star.
Earlier in the day, San Beda expressed intention to seek an extension of the TRO while replacing Fr. Paul de Vera with Albert Almendralejo as its representative in the Mancom.
“That’s probably the case (TRO extension) because we felt that we can no longer get fair treatment from the NCAA over a ruling that does not even have any provision in its constitution and bylaws,” Fr. Mateo de Jesus, SBC rector and president, told the Philippine Daily Inquirer Thursday.
The SBC policy board on Wednesday reportedly junked the Mancom recommendation for a season ban on Aljamal.
Meanwhile, Letran College will try to join San Beda in the Final Four Friday when the Knights tangle at 4 p.m. with the San Sebastian College Stags at the Arena in San Juan City.
Also-rans University of Perpetual Help and College of St. Benilde earlier collide at 2 p.m.
Coming off a 15-day rest, Letran coach Louie Alas is confident his players will perform well against the Stags, whom the Knights defeated in the first round, 71-61.

NCAA tourney may be scrapped
By WAYLON GALVEZ
THE STRUGGLE between the NCAA and its tournament leader San Beda over whether SBC’s star player Yousif Aljamal should be suspended is sinking into a quagmire that could lead to the scrapping of the remainder of the league’s basketball season, a top league official said yesterday.
With the three-day Temporary Restraining Order issued by a Manila court that allowed Aljamal to play expiring today, San Beda reportedly is poised to seek another TRO to prevent the player’s suspension from taking effect.
San Beda’s plan reportedly does not sit well with some members of the powerful NCAA policy board with one member saying that if that happens, they may scrap the whole basketball season altogether.
The policy board member, who requested anonymity since he was not authorized to divulge their plans, said his group was incensed that instead of discussing and solving the problem within the organization, San Beda has dragged the whole league to court.
"This matter should have been discussed amongst member schools, without the involvement of the court of law," he said.
At the center of the controversy is Aljamal, the power forward who is the heart and soul of San Beda’s title-retention campaign.
Aljamal was banned by the league’s management committee or MANCOM for violating league rules regarding his application in the PBA Draft which saw him picked by Air21 at No. 8. MANCOM officials said Aljamal did not seek permission when he placed his name in the draft.
Although the NCAA has bent backwards, according to sources within the league, by overriding the disqualification and settling for a three-game suspension for Aljamal, thus giving him a chance to play in the Final Four, San Beda is still furious at this possibility and said it will accept nothing less than exoneration.
"Even a one-game suspension is too harsh," San Beda Rector and President Fr. Mateo de Jesus said.
De Jesus said that if the NCAA insists on suspending Aljamal, they will seek another TRO. The ACCRA law office, a heavyweight among local firms, which got the initial TRO, has been advised to file another in case the suspension is implemented.
When told that the NCAA may abort the tournament altogether if San Beda gets another TRO, De Jesus said: "Ask me if they (NCAA) made the decision."
Some policy board members have reportedly been turned off by what one described as San Beda’s "bullying tactics."
Where this struggle will lead to is no one’s guess. Each side appears to be moving inexorably to a path where a graceful exit might be difficult to achieve.
Adding tension to an already difficult situation was the near free-for-all during Wednesday’s San Beda- Jose Rizal game.
San Beda coach Frankie Lim accused the Jose Rizal bench of allegedly ordering its players to commit hard fouls on the Red Lions.
After the game, which San Beda won, 82-74, Lim allegedly tried to provoke JRC coach Ariel Vanguardia by bumping him as they walked toward their respective dugouts.
Vanguardia did not bite and the two coaches were separated.
MANCOM will discuss this incident today although NCAA commissioner Chito Narvasa does not see much in the incident.
"It’s an outburst after an emotional game," he said.
Several MANCOM members, who are to meet last night to discuss with lawyers from Mapua and JRU on their next move, had no to comment on the possiblity of calling off the basketball season.
"We have to answer the TRO and we’ll also heed advice from the lawyers regarding our next step," said MANCOM member Henry Atayde of the College of St. Benilde, who also seats in the policy board.
The board will meet today to discuss the TRO, as well as the alclash involving JRU coach Ariel Vanguardia, who claimed he was bumped by SBC mentor Frankie Lim at the hallway after the game.
As far as basketball commissioner Chito Narvasa is concerned, there are no penalties on the two coaches, saying: "It’s an outburst after an emotional game."
On the other hand, Albert Almendralejo will replace Fr. Paul de Vera as MANCOM representative of San Beda.

NCAA caging may be scrapped if Red Lions don’t relent
IF San Beda College continues to contest the NCAA Management Committee decision suspending the Red Lions’ ace player, Yousif Aljamal, for joining the PBA rookie draft last Sunday without seeking permission from the league, the ManCom may be forced to scrap the 83rd season of the country’s oldest collegiate league.
This was bared by a ranking league official yesterday, who added the eight-man ManCom, tasked to advise the league’s policy board composed of presidents and rectors of all participating schools, will not hesitate in taking this drastic action if the Red Lions do not stop their "hostile reaction" to Aljamal’s suspension.
The official, who requested anonymity for the meantime, said the possible scrapping of the league’s 83rd season was one of the "suggestions" put forward during a recent ManCom meeting.
The league’s policy board suspended Aljamal for the rest of the season last Tuesday but the Mancom shortened the suspension to three games. In response, San Beda, headed by its rector and president, Fr. Mateo de Jesus, sought a 72-hour Temporary Restraining Order from Branch 33 of the Manila Regional Trial Court that enabled Aljamal to suit up in the Red Lions’ 82-74 win over the JRU Heavy Bombers last Wednesday.
While acknowledging the plan may have drastic repercussions, among them the possible withdrawal of advertisers and the league’s broadcast partner, the source said canceling the season could be the only solution to prevent San Beda from bringing the Aljamal case to court, which could derail the operations of the league.
Informed of this development, De Jesus said San Beda will not blink in the latest controversy to hit the league.
Earlier this month, the league also hogged the headlines when National Bureau of Investigation agents arrested Paolo Orbeta of St. Benilde and three other persons for involvement in illegal gambling in the NCAA.
De Jesus said San Beda’s lawyers will seek an extension of the TRO that expires today.
De Jesus added that even if the league cancels the season, San Beda officials believe they are standing on high legal ground, adding the series of unfortunate events rocking the NCAA "is not our fault."
De Jesus stressed taking the case to court is their legal right, adding nobody, not even the league, can take that right away. At the same time, he said it will not have any direct impact on their relationship with the league.
"We don’t regret any of our actions, especially bringing the case to the court," De Jesus said. "There have been continuous TROs left and right in the previous years, but it didn’t tarnish the relationship among member schools. We’re open to settle this thing in the board room, but we’re doing this to fight for our right."
Mancom officials and their lawyers met late yesterday to tackle their response to San Beda’s legal action. They are also set to meet today to formally announce Aljamal’s suspension.
In another development, San Beda has tapped Albert Almendralejo to replace its erstwhile Mancom representative, Fr. Paul de Vera, allegedly due to De Vera’s failure to object to the Mancom decision.
De Jesus, however, denied de Vera was relieved of his duties, adding it was the latter who asked that he be replaced.
"He already has three campuses and two schools to work on and the Women’s National Collegiate Athletic Association and NCAA South are about to open. We decided to let him go since we needed a full-time person to represent us in the ManCom," De Jesus stressed.
NCAA Commissioner Chito Narvasa yesterday said the league has yet to decide what penalty to impose on San Beda coach Frankie Lim and Jose Rizal University counterpart Ariel Vanguardia who figured in a shoving match after last the Red Lions beat the Heavy Bombers 82-74 last Wednesday at The Arena in San Juan.
Meanwhile, Letran hopes to earn an outright Final Four seat when it battles San Sebastian at 4 p.m. today. Tailenders Perpetual and St. Benilde clash in the other game at 2 o’clock.

NCAA, Lions brace for longer legal tussle
By JOEY VILLAR
The Philippine Star
A protracted legal battle between the NCAA and San Beda loomed as the NCAA Management Committee met with its lawyers last night to come up with a response to the temporary restraining order (TRO) filed by San Beda against the league that enabled Yousif Aljamal to play against Jose Rizal last Wednesday.
“The league will meet with its lawyers tonight (last night) because we have to answer the TRO that San Beda filed,” St. Benilde board representative and Mancom member Henry Atayde said in a press statement Thursday.
“We will also heed the advice of our lawyers for our next step,” he added.
The NCAA Policy Board, headed by Vince Fabella of Jose Rizal, has set another emergency meeting Friday, their second in three days after it decided to reduce Aljamal’s tournament-long sanction to a suspension for the rest of the elimination round.
However, a source said the league might seek a forfeiture of the game where Aljamal played that saw San Beda score an 82-74 win over Jose Rizal after the 72-hour TRO expires.
But San Beda coach Frankie Lim said they might be forced to file for another TRO again.
“If they do that, we’ll file a TRO again,” said Lim.
The Mancom, chaired by Paul Supan of Jose Rizal, last Wednesday decided to disbar the 2006 Finals MVP until the end of the season after he took part in the camp conducted by the PBA as a prelude to its annual rookie draft without officially informing the league.
“We based our decisions on our league rules, nothing else,” said Supan.
The special rule was implemented three seasons ago with former league stars Gabby Espinas of Philippine Christian U, Boyet Bautista and Aaron Aban of Letran and Leo Najorda of San Sebastian informing the NCAA of their plans to join the PBA.
Meanwhile, Letran shoots for the second berth in the Final Four as it takes on San Sebastian Friday at resumption of the 83rd NCAA men’s basketball tournament at The Arena in San Juan.
The Knights are currently at second place with a 7-2 (win-loss) slate with a victory over the Stags in their 4 p.m. encounter netting them the second spot in the semis while boosting their bid for a twice-to-beat incentive.
In the other game, Perpetual Help (2-7) clashes with St. Benilde (1-10) at 2 p.m. in a non-bearing contest.

Obviously the MANCOM is cornered so it is using this threat to make San Beda back down. Funny that they proudly proclaim NOW that they are open to settling this within the board when at the onset they did not give SBC due process.
For the UNINFORMED, some facts you need to know:
1. THERE IS NO SUCH RULE in existence in the NCAA rulebook. IF THERE IS I DARE ANY OF YOU TO POST IT HERE.
2. The decision to suspend Aljamal was made and signed AUGUST 8 (the Rookie camp was from Aug 15-17)
3. The suspension was delivered at 1PM August 21
Talk about sincerity and just implementing the rules. If they were really sincere they should have advised San Beda of their decision last August 8. What this action shows is that 1) MANCOM was fully aware that Aljamal was joining the draft and 2) they really intended to ban even though he hasn't participated in the said camp yet -- August 8 decision for a supposed violation on August 15-17. In short they connived to sabotage San Beda's campaign.

MANCOM'S decision to SCRAP this season
because of San Beda and Yousif Alajaml's decision to settle the issue through legal means is B*llsh*t....
If MANCOM opts to scrap this season because of Aljamal's
PENDING VICTORY in court (in all angles, Aljamal and San Beda has the advantage in this legal battle) it obviously shows how
COWARDLY they can be....
Is the MANCOM too scared to accept defeat or too proud to apologize and accept they have made a mistake.
More so, DONT BLAME SAN BEDA IF THE SPONSORS OF THE NCAA LEAVE
BLAME THE ACTIONS OF MANCOM AND THE JRU PLAYERS

I said it before and I'll say it again, MANCOMM is the breeding ground of trapos, and corrupt representatives of each school that knows nothing but self-preservation in the guise of unity and solidarity of schools. It applies to all schools, regardless of who is the host school. Every season, they ruin the game.
I commend the San Beda community for fighting for their rights, but in the end, MANCOMM will spoil everything. Even if you leave the league with your pride intact, because they are in a league of their own. So much for sportsmanship. :down: :shakehead:

If SBC gets an extension, mas lalong mapapahiya ang mancom.
i wonder how will mancom save their losing integrity pag nagkataon. wag naman sanang mag suicide *** head nila.

PLAYING FAIR
By Ronnie Nathanielsz
ManilaStandardToday.com
24 August 2007
WHEN we switched to Studio 23 to watch the San Beda-Jose Rizal University game last Tuesday, we were pleasantly surprised to see Red Lion’s hotshot Yousif Aljamal in action since the league’s so-called management committee had banned him for the rest of the season.
The reasons cited was Aljamal’s failure to inform the Mancom of his entry into the Philippine Basketball Association Annual Draft and apparently for his participation in games, which were part of the Rookie Camp activities.
For a moment, we thought that good sense had prevailed and the National Collegiate Athletic Association realized its mistake and let the young man play. Instead, it turned out that San Beda obtained a Temporary Restraining Order, which enabled Aljamal to play in what was a crucial game to Jose Rizal University in its bid to earn a place in the Final Four.
To begin with, the attempt by management committees or boards of governors to interfere in the operations of any leagues goes against the grain of ensuring fairness and integrity, since team owners or their representatives obviously have partisan and selfish interests to protect. This is true of the PBA, PBL, UAAP, NCAA or any other league for that matter. That is why the leagues appoint commissioners, who are presumably fair-minded individuals, who don’t favor any team and have no particular interests other than the good of the league as a whole.
“Think League” was the cry of the late, well-loved PBA commissioner Jun Bernardino, who followed the path of independence and fairness, which were espoused by his eminent predecessors and mentors Leo Prieto and Rudy Salud.
The fact that JRU, the host of this year’s NCAA, was playing San Beda in a game that meant so much to them and stood to benefit from the ban on Aljamal made a mockery of the concept of fairness and sportsmanship that we presume is inculcated in the youth by our educational institutions. Whether JRU influenced the Mancom or not is immaterial, because whether they like it not, it looked in very poor taste. Besides, it didn’t speak well of the NCAA itself especially since Aljamal was a key player and proved it beyond doubt in Tuesday’s (sic) game.
The resort to the courts as a means of obtaining justice in a sporting environment runs counter to the very essence of the philosophy that games should be won or lost on the hardcourt or the playing field and never in board rooms, where personal interests override the good of the league. Beyond that, it sets a disturbing trend that all genuine lovers of sport should guard against.
Of course, San Beda was left with no choice but to seek redress in the courts for what seemed like a terrible injustice both to the team and the player by the NCAA management committee, which should, in the first place, merely set the goals and the guidelines and allow its commissioner to run the league and decide on issues of eligibility, violation of rules, etc.
Aljamal had an inherent right to join the PBA Draft and there is no earthly reason why he should have been severely penalized for not informing the NCAA other than it being an act of courtesy. That he played in the Rookie Camp games as a basis for the disqualification rings hollow. The games were not part of a sanctioned tournament and was merely an attempt to size up the skills of the amateur players in the draft.
In the end, Aljamal played, San Beda won as expected despite a pathetic effort of JRU to play dirty at times, which incurred the ire of coach Frankie Lim, and JRU was embarrassed, not so much because they lost but how they tried to win.

Below is the statement of NCAA Management Committee regarding the Temporary Restraining Order:
" Last night we met with the Policy Board, led by its president Vincent K. Fabella of Jose Rizal University, as well as with the NCAA lawyers from Mapua and JRU to discuss the Temporary Restraining Order (TRO).
This morning at 8:30 a.m. at the Manila Regional Trial Court, we presented the NCAA position and the evidences. We are mandated by court to do so. Since it is with the court already, we cannot talk about the case. The NCAA hopes San Beda College will do the same.
Rest assured, while the court proceedings are taking place, the games will continue. Besides, we never entertained the thought of aborting the season.
Paul Supan, MANCOM Chairman (JRU)"
Wow, so now they're singing a different tune. I wonder what the newspaper reporters who picked up their story will say now.

Got chicken from all the possibles issues, suits and claims that Studio23, the advertisers, etc. may bring against them. :naughty:
In all likelihood, nakakuha na mga yan ng advance payments from Studio23 and the advertisers. If they will cancel the rest of the season, they will be obligated to return the money they have received. Ang kaso baka nagastos na ni Supan, et al. ang advance payments :rotflmao:

i agree with some of your points. here's mine. though i'm a bedan at heart, it's juz dissapointing to know how a coach destroyed sbc's rep.
What frankie did last wednesday was NOT HOW A BEDAN SHOULD BE. Wala sa lugar!! He used to be like that back in his PBA days. He said that what jru players did on his guys was a blessing of jru's coach(?). Pressuming he was right, is it not but proper to complain to the refs. Then the refs shoud then have penalized those players..kick the players out if they have to! But why single out JRU's coach??!
And his words.... his words are plain too dirty which contradicts his useless statement of "having class" so to speak. What he did, confronting...using kalye dirty words and his actions in general were plain too cheap! I'm just disgusted on how he acted.
c'mon guys. let's all be open minded about this issue. true enough, the players of jru have commited such unaccepted fouls BUT I didn't like the way frankie lim reacted. asan na yung 'class' na sinasabi nya wherein the way his actions speak of being unclassy at all. I even saw his wife by the bench, nakikipagaway din!!!!!!!!!!!!! *** da hell! and from what i know, she teaches 'etiquette' pa.
i'd rather have koy banal and get a b2b than have this whole crappy incident happen again. disappointing.

walang mali sa ginawa ng MANCOM!!!!
parang relasyon lang iyan ng MAGULANG sa ANAK!!!
kailan man di magtatanong ang magulang sa anak kung ano ang mga balak nito sa buhay niya!!! dapat ang anak ang magsabi sa magulang niya!!!
ngayon di nagustuhan ng magulang ang ginawa ng anak!!!
grounded ka!!!
pero in time maiintindihan din yun ng magulang. at maiintindihan din yun ng anak.
do i need to say more!!! RESPETO lang ang gusto ng magulang!! OK!!
nabasa ko di na daw i-scrap ang NCAA 83 kasi wala silang pambayad sa demanda ng abs-cbn:bop:

Come to think of it even the official MANCOM statement is not "accurate". According to the statement, the NCAA presented their case at 8:30am when in fact what really happened was that the hearing took place in the afternoon after Supan tried to railroad the proceedings with his delaying tactics during the morning by appearing without a counsel.
Anyway, now with the 20 day TRO in place this further confirms that the NCAA ruling has no basis whatsoever. This also confirms that those trolls who are living out their fantasies by revealing their lack of breeding online via their San Beda hate posts are probably on the wrong side of morality.
Lastly, I do have a special message to michaelbobo. Good for you that an imbecile like you is in a first world country. You definitely need that since I'm sure you can't find a decent job here in The Philippines. But just between you and me, I travel business class all the time and I've been in and out of North America, South America, Middle East, Europe, Oceania and Asia (in fact I'm leaving for a "short vacation" to Melbourne on Tuesday). The only difference between us I think is that I hold a high paying job here in the Philippines so I need not become a slave in another country. Like you. So when I go out of the country its either for business or for vacation... oh and I've stayed at posh 5-star hotels around the world, in fact my STARWOOD, PRIORITY CLUB & GOLDEN CIRCLE cards continue to give me free nights because of my travels. Hey, who knows maybe you work at one of those hotels either as a janitor or roomboy.
P.S. - I like the way how you show your breeding and how you peddle your lies here on the internet. Not so much class but at least its entertaining.

Anyhow, I think San Beda is better off without the NCAA. This goes to MIT and CSB as well...
IMO, Cultured Bedans, Benildeans and Mapuans are being dragged down by creatures from other NCAA schools... :superevil:

well, i just dont like on how the mancom's statements stated by Henry Atayde on his interview at the hardball which implies that SAN BEDA bringing the issue to the court is somewhat O.A. dont they think first that suspending aljamal in any games is O.a coz its so mababaw, i mean, i just felt that san beda were somewhat napagtutulungan ng other NCAA representatives sa Mancom.... Basta i dont think san beda will led on that decision if they think it will be the fastest remedy since if they dont do it, most likely jamal will not be allowed to play... hay.. i strongly suggest that mancom should humbly accept its error, and just give jamal a warning. haaay... and hindi naman sa pang-aapi sa JRU, but so far medyo magulo handling nila ng NCAA. at xaka y dont they give sanctions too to 3 JRU players who gives hard fouls? (im refering to SBCvsJRU game2)..
NOW...
I am appealing to the whole BEDAN COMMUNITY that let us all be united and stand as one community in this tpe of dilemma.
to the NCAA ManCom, dont blame san beda if dey bring it to the court instead of fixing it with in themselves, kc mali talaga ang decision nyo.. BE objective in making decisions.
Sa JRU, i hope u dont use ur power to derail sbc(i hope not)
