Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

La Salle's EJ Gollena on Winning UAAP Titles, Hoops, and Fatherhood
Q: There's something I wanted to ask. The difference between being a champion, aka the hunted, from being the challenger, aka the hunter, because your first year you guys were the hunters, right?
Being the hunter gives you a clear goal; being the hunted requires sustaining motivation and setting a new North Star to stay focused, especially after winning. It's about keeping ambition and not letting success dull the edge.
Collins Akowe on What Comes Next
Q: Collins, are you getting interest and offers to play college basketball in other countries as of now?
He sidestepped with a playful hesitation, signaling that there is interest but not committing publicly, and noted that decisions will come with time.
FEU's Sean Chambers on Blue-Chip Recruits, UAAP Success, and Winning Cultures
Q: What was your vision for Cab Cabanillas when you recruited him?
The vision was to integrate him as a key part of a versatile, long, and talented lineup, using his game intelligence and leadership to help anchor the front line and contribute across multiple positions.
New Ateneo Recruit Travis Roberts on Picking the Blue Eagles & Gilas Dreams
Q: How are you preparing for the physicality of UAAP and life in the Philippines off the court?
He stated he is getting stronger in the weight room and is mindful of adapting to life in the Philippines, including culture and distance from family.
New Ateneo Recruit Travis Roberts on Picking the Blue Eagles & Gilas Dreams
Q: What can Ateneo fans expect from you on the defensive end given the team's offensive talent?
He answered that he will bring sustained effort, length, versatility to guard multiple positions, and a focus on defense as a key pathway to earning playing time.
