Kasama na po yun sa pinirmahan natin,&quot; he said. &quot;For a program like La Salle. It&#x27;s either you win a championship or you die trying. You&#x27;re always gonna get criticized, kumbaga kasama yan.&quot;Being the man in charge of La Salle basketball is an honor that Robinson is not taking lightly as well.&quot;Lahat are looking for your flaws and make a big story about it, and kasama po yan sa pag dive-in ko sa program ng La Salle,&quot; he said. &quot;But it&#x27;s always nice to be a part of a program that&#x27;s been winning championships. Alam namin kung anong pinasukan namin, so we always try the best that we could be,&quot; added the former PBA player.

De La Salle University will remain spearheaded by a proven winner as they seek to reclaim their spot at the top of the UAAP.
