As fans, we all agree that we need to give Coach Roger Gorayeb the highest respect for bringing Alyssa Valdez in Ateneo. Of course, I would still think na she would go great naman sa UST if she decided to stay. But as what Coach Roger said, he made Alyssa the center of Ateneo Volleyball, to which he extended to the Philippine Volleyball. Grabe rin kasi perseverance ni Alyssa, and Coach really saw her character. I love you both! Thank you for bringing me to the volleyball community since 2014.
In my book, Coach Roger's greatest achievement are not the championships but 2 things: him being a cancer survivor and him getting Alyssa to where she is right now.. Saludo ako sayo coach
Dito ko napatunayan ang busilak na kalooban ni Coach Riger dahil kng sakim siya papayag siya na lumipat si Alysa but he is truely a Gentleman and Man through his word. Salute po Sir and God bless and Good health as always baka maka discover pa kayo ng Bagong Alysa 2.0
Sobrang nakakaiyak naman ito💗💗💗💗.. Kaya kahit lasalista ako sobrang tinitingala at hinahangaan namin si Alyssa kasi napaka humble nya and marunong lumingon sa pinanggalingan💗💗💗💗💗 salute to you Queen Phenom💗💗💗💗
Salute to Coach Roger , wlang Alyssa Valdez kung wlang Coach Roger . Thank you both ❤❤. Both Humble and inspiring specially the connection and bond .. 🏐🏐💙💙
As someone who came to love volleyball and Ateneo because of Alyssa, I can't help but get sentimental too. I still remember Studio 23 pa nun live coverage ng games, first playing year ni Alyssa, until now nag-chicheer pa din ako sa kanya.
Naiiyak ko sa interview nato grabeh alyssa the discipline and a genuine character of a good player kaya super love kita ❤❤❤ good reflection to sa lahat not only sa volley community 😢😊
isa na ako na naimpluwensyahan sa larong volleyball ni Allyssa noong napanood ko ang laban nila sa Dela Salle season 76 na nag champion ang Ateneo kaya hanggang ngayon pinanood kona ang mga laro sa volleyball mapa NCAA,UAAP at PVL kahit CCS supporter ako kng saan team si Alyssa nakasupport ako🤭
Salamat coach for giving alyssa to us. Indeed mabait at humble si ineng even coach tai loved her dahil napaka humble na bata kahit napaka galing. Been watching uaap fab 5 days na rookie pa si Ly up untill always will ber her fan my phenom
And it’s very true, and still holds up to this day, whether you agree or not, PH volleyball started garnering a massive massive fan base, when Allyssa Valdez started playing for Ateneo. She’s definitely not the best player in the country anymore but she WAS, and the contribution she’s made and done to PH volleyball will forever be there.
Super fan talaga ako ni Aly kasi naalala ko yung nag middle sya...yung 7 sila sa loob ng court...yung under 23...yung sea games...grabeh tagal na pala 😂
Coaches, mentors, teachers can see the potentials in a person beyond what is obvious tama.si coach Roger, ang mga coaches may gut feeling sa pagpili, magaling kumilatis kung sino ang malaki ang potential
Nice interview. Very touching. Kakatuwa yon sinusundo sa LRT si Alyssa. Recruiting Alyssa to play for Ateneo together with the fab5 improved the play of the ADMU WV team which made matches against DLSU more exciting. In a way, this ADMU-DLSU rivalry in WV got more people interested in volleyball. It can be said that Coach Roger had a hand in lifting the status of volleyball as a popular sport. We even now have professional leagues which continue to provide jobs and opportunities to volleyball players even after college. Kudos to you, Coach Roger! Side story. I once saw Coach Roger at a Mercury Drug branch. He was much thinner then, probably just newly recovered from his sickness, but I still recognized him as I'm a fan of UAAP WV, a staunch supporter of the DLSU Lady Spikers. I went up to him and said "Good morning, coach." He acknowledged my greeting with a smile. Mukha siyang mabait and I'm even more convinced now after watching this interview.
Nkkaiyak ..Akala k ..d ako miiyak...salute to coach Roger..your so very good. Tama LAHAT ng mga naisip..nkita ...snabi...mo po Kay Alyssa ...sya nga Ang center..face..ng volleyball..kaya ngayun Marami na napamahal s volleyball ❤❤dhil sa knya ..salamat coach..sau LAHAT...ngsumula .na pa angat Ang Ateneo s larangan ng volleyball ❤❤❤
Aminin man nation o hnd Lalo ngaun Marami nanood NG panahon ateneo si Alyssa, at hanggan sa ngaun sa pvl, sobrang Marami nanood, tinalo nyu PA ngaun ang PBA. THANK YOU COACH ROGER AT ALYSSA.
Ateneo made me watch UAAP. panahon nila Gervacio, wala pang Baldo nu. Sila Bea Pascual pa ung mga OG ng trashtalk. Pero aun, Paneng Mercado is ❤ kaya ending DLSU supporter till now.
So true coach roger prang galit pero ang totoo ginising niya ang mga player na nawawala sa game 😍😍😍😍 Wlang Alyssa qng wlang isang father figure na coach
Sad to say that Ateneo, I think, didn't pay back to Coach Roger after all his 5 years of coaching years. Ateneo now is repeating its history of not winning in the Final Four.
Never yan nkapag podium finish sa stint nya abroad.. laspag na kasi kaya nandadaya nlang.. di na nasasama sa mga best players sa conference.. pinagawan nlang nang pampalubagloob na award hahahaha
