The performance of a team is often reflected on the head coach. When a team underperforms or fails to meet expectations, the head coach often finds themselves on the hot seat. Here are five PBA head coaches who are currently on the hot seat, meaning the chance that they will get fired is high.
5. Aldin Ayo - XERS
Aldin Ayo, the head coach of XERS, finds himself at number five on this list. Despite the team’s losing streak, the management is expected to be patient. The more losses they have, the closer they are to grabbing Justin Baltazar, a promising prospect.
4. John Cardel - Terrafirma Dyip
John Cardel, the head coach of Terrafirma Dyip, is fourth on the list. If Terrafirma is serious about contending for a crown, Cardel is the most likely to get fired. The team’s performance under his leadership will be a crucial factor in this decision.
3. Jojo Lastimosa - TNT
Jojo Lastimosa, the head coach of TNT, is third on the hot seat list. Despite leading the team to a championship, Coach Chot is scheduled to return, putting Lastimosa’s position in jeopardy.
2. Chito Victolero - Magnolia Hotshots
Chito Victolero, the head coach of the Magnolia Hotshots, is second on the list. Victolero has been a top-five coach in the last several years, but failing to win a crown for several years might push the management to make a change. Unless he can convert the current undefeated record to a 2023-2024 Commissioner’s Cup crown, his position could be at risk.
1. Jorge Gallent - San Miguel Beermen
Remember that the former coach Leo Austria won the 2022 Philippine Cup and he is back with the team as active consultant. I am pretty sure that coach Jorge understand the message that the management is delivering with the return of coach Leo.
