University of Sto. Tomas (UST) Growling Tigers head coach Boy Sablan knew well the consequences if his wards lose on Sunday against University of the East (UE)—they will finish the Season 80 of the University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) men’s basketball tournament winless. The once formidable Growling Tigers are now wallowing in shame with a 0-13 win-loss record.

“It’s the call of the management, whether they replace me or not, and it’s going to be fine [with me] because I’m always doing my best as a coach although we fell short in most games,” Sablan, 54, told The Manila Times. “I will accept whatever is their decision.”
