Jerwin Gaco: Will he suit up next year?

[heartangel103]

Question lang... I read in PDI that he's not going to suit up next year. Any truth to that report? Why? Will he suit up the year after next or di na talaga?

[gokou]

He only had 2 years of eligibility in DLSU cuz he already played 3 years in PUP so he's thru with college ball.

[Myst]

from a direct quote from Franz in his rookie year

"Jerwin is good for us only for two years..."

[camerlengo]

he played 2 years with pup
residency 1 year with dlsu
played 2 years with dlsu
goodbye

[GreenArrows]

He DID NOT DO ANY RESIDENCY with DLSU. He already graduated from PUP when he went to DLSU thus there was NO NEED for any residency.

how does the residency rule work anyway?

[GreenArrows]

Residency is required if one transfers from one college to another. Basically here are the instances when residency is required:

1) If a college player transfers from one UAAP school to another UAAP school, two calendar years of residency is required before he/she can play for his/her new UAAP school.

2) If a college player transfers from a non-UAAP school to a UAAP school, one calendar year of residency is required before he/she can play for the UAAP school.

3) If a player has studied abroad or was abroad for 3 of the last five years, he/she must serve two calendar years of residency before he/she can play for his/her UAAP school.

so when one transfers...

jerwin graduated, and enrolled in a master's program, and did not transfer, technicaly... hmmm... gets. thanks.

btw, bakit three years yung count ng eligibility niya from pup? if he graduated from there, di ba dapat four year na yun count? curious lang.

Yes, he studied four years at PUP but only played OFFICIAL PUP ball for three years.

ah... so if a team can scour for a long, big man who played not a lot of ball, he can have a lot of eligibility?

si arwind ba ganun?

coz from what i know, santos played in the cbl. but what i don't get is how come after playing all those years in a pro league, he's still eligible for the uaap. parang ang nagbo-bother sakin: hindi ba 'to nagcollege?

a10,

mukhang hindi nga. but an FEU insider can confirm that.

there are loopholes in the rules actually, to make sure a recruit can play immediately.

erase all your college records from abroad/ from the other not so known colleges, to bypass eligibility rules.

or graduate early the easiest possible way, and enroll in graduate school in the school.

hmmm. quite interesting.

schools can always create Masters in PE or something (courses fitting for athletes) to make sure eligibility rules will no longer be required.

mas ok pa yata, scrap na lang yang residency requirements.

i know there are loopholes, but other board members will claw out and dig up erased records. its up to them to see to it that no school cheats.

scrapping the eligibility rules will make the league look like a pro tourney.

[theFan]

it looks like a pro tourney anyway. hehe.

i mean, relax those residency requirements.

but then again, it's just my opinion.

well, it'd look all the more like a pro league, then.

if you didn't have the residency thing, feu would be the champ this year with jonas on their fold. and how many more jonases can the uaap take until we turn into a pba farm league with high turnover rates of players who have no sense of school pride?

[theFan]

hmmm. maybe jonas will make that denok miss. just kidding...hehehe.

good points. i agree.

sagwa naman tignan kung kapwa board pa gagawa nun. remember Cardona issue (i sypathized with Mac on that one).

hmmm. di rin gaano nalayo sa interbarangay. may hugutan, protestahan, etc. at sa PBA, ganun din ang Fil-For issue.

laro na lang!!

cheers!

The CBL is a commercial league but not a pro league. But still, FEU had a lot of convincing to do for Arwind to play with full eligibility

[RuckuS]

gaco maybe overaged to play another season.

i don't get the diff of a commercial league from a pro league.

i know the pbl coined the term semi-pro with the difference primarily on allowance vs salary, but really, what's the diff?
