MANILA, Philippines -- The search for the new head coach of University of Santo Tomas got more interesting as legendary PBA import Sean Chambers has officially applied for the position.
The head coaching post at UST has been vacant since the resignation of Aldin Ayo earlier this month, a consequence of the "Sorsogon bubble" controversy wherein the Growling Tigers were found to have trained in his hometown since June.
Chambers revealed that he considered applying for the UST post in 2017, when the position was vacated by Boy Sablan. There was also an opportunity for him to be a consultant in the PBA in 2012. At the time, however, his children were still too young, and he felt it was not the right time for him to return to the place he considers his second home.
Chambers, now the Dean of Students at Fern Bacon Middle School, understands he will have a tough task should he get the UST job. "We'll talk to the alumni and the support staff, get the alumni to come back and be supportive of the program like they used to be back in the '90s when I was there with Coach Aric ," he added.
