The probable reason why UP basketball team always lose in UAAP is budget shortage. The UP budget cuts have worsened the dilemma. The annual UP budget which was already not enough in the past years are still deducted resulting to lesser budget allocations in the university. The budget given to sports department is not enough to sustain the needs of the varsity players. The gym is not appropriate for the players to train at because they still need to fit their schedules to avoid time conflict with other gym users. The privileges given to the players are also not enough compared to other schools. Some schools even provide housing intended only for players. This always put the players in good condition which affects their performance.
Another reason is that the players are not always excused in their academic endeavours. The players cannot not do their training and review in the same level of priority. The one which is more prioritized often (if not always) yield the best results.
These are just some of the reasons why UP fails to win. If these are not taken into account, it would be hard for the UP basketball team to rank high in the UAAP.
