IT appears CJ Cansino's unceremonious exit from University of Santo Tomas has opened a Pandora's Box, putting into light the Growling Tigers' supposed bubble in Sorsogon.
Videos have leaked on social media pages indicating the Tigers have been holding training sessions in coach Aldin Ayo's hometown as early as mid-June. The footages remain unverified and Cansino wants no part in it.
"Humihingi ako ng sorry sa mga tao na humihingi ng sagot ngayon, lalo na sa UST fans. Ayoko na magsalita dahil respeto na lang sa UST at sa teammates ko," the 20-year-old, speaking on Anong Tunay?!, said.
"Ayoko rin na sa akin manggaling yun kasi kung sa akin manggaling yun, alam kong masisira ang team. Alam ko ang mangyayari sa UST."
Rather than answering these queries, Cansino said he is leaving it to those better suited to respond.
"Sila na ang bahalang mag-confirm dyan. Out na ako dyan," said the 6-foot-2 court general, who has since committed to University of the Philippines.
"Gusto ko nang mag-move on, gusto ko nang magtrabaho sa susunod na team ko, gusto ko na doon mag-focus. Ayoko nang balikan yung nangyari in the past."
The IATF is set to probe UST on its alleged trainings in Sorsogon, acordind to Games and Amusements Board (GAB) chair Baham Mitra who spoke on behalf of the representatives behind the Joint Administrative Order (JAO) guidelines on sports events.
Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) Undersecretary Martin Dino also stated that the government is already looking into the matter.
