From “forever rookie” and “antenna queen,” you fought through the noise to become one of our country’s superstar. You’re the epitome of perseverance & quiet strength—turning doubt into dominance. Your MVP performance this conference is a huge statement. 🥹❤️‍🔥 #PVL2026

Not us, don't worry kid. I might not be rooting for your team as I have my own picks but I'll definitely not be in the crowd hating you guys. Wala naman na si Tab at si Epok, wala nang dahilan para i-bash kayo. Kapit lang, Ateneo Men's Basketball Team 🫂

RT @vaurnie: I really hope Kieffer Alas considers taking legal action over the threats. sobrang lala ng comments sakaniya sa fb & timtok. a…

ok na po? can we all spare the players from y'all's anger na? can we all direct it to those who actually deserves to be held accountable? haha awa na lang sa mga players. imagine you being in their shoes for once

mawala na sana yang app na yan dito sa pinas jusko naging pugad nalang talaga ng mga dds na tanga leche!!

what’s with the “inggit si Kieffer kay Rene” narratives when Kieffer only had one request for an ateneo teammate, and that was Rene Baterbonia.

ang lala ng mga comments kay kieff sa iba’t ibang social media platforms majority mga dds na basura. sobrang nakakagalit at nakakalungkot :(( 19 years old lang ‘yan and he doesn’t deserve it. i just really hope he refrain from reading comments cuz ang lala talaga.

kaya never ko talaga matatanggap yung criticism sa mga players! halos mamatay na yang mga yan dahil sa kagaguhan ni tab tapos puputaktihin niyo pa ng bashing? putangina niyong mga baliw!

the truth is, they aren’t here for justice. Sakay sa panahon. As long as hindi pasok sa narrative, they will not accept it.

What I got from Sam Reyes and Kieffer Alas’ interview: - It was not an initiation rite. - They were doing an exercise in thigh-deep water when the waves suddenly became stronger. - CPR was being performed on Rene before a medic stopped it so he could be brought to the ambulance. - Divine still had a pulse when he was recovered but was taken to the hospital in a police vehicle. - No one aside from Rene and Divine was in critical condition, contrary to some early reports. - No ankle weights were used. - No gag order, but they were advised not to speak publicly (except to family). - They’ve been receiving death threats. - They believe the backlash has been worsened by the lack of information released publicly by Ateneo. - They waited to speak because it was difficult emotionally and because they were expecting the fact-finding process. - They said they still haven’t been interviewed for the investigation. - Right now, they’re focused on recovering mentally before returning to basketball.

"I was gonna accept na mawawala na po ako". - Kieffer He also does not know how to swim. He was able to help Sam pa (since namention ni Sam that Kief helped him) kahit hirap din siya, namumulikat daw siya. They were paddling together daw until they reached the shore.

kieff 🥺😭 kaya nakakaputangina talaga mga patuloy na nambabash sa mga players. tangina niyo sagad!

❗️❗️❗️

thank you for sharing your statement and telling us what happened even with heavy hearts and shaky voices, kieffer alas and sam reyes. i hope this interview helps us find the truth and bring justice to our brothers in heaven. sending tight hugs, boys.

A faculty member expressed a demand for transparency. ABAO: You didn’t even preventively suspend Coach Baldwin and the other coaches. Kung kami 'yun [teaching staff], ginawa niyo agad yun. | via @Roi_TheGDN

Now that Sam & Kief have finally been able to tell what really happened that day, it's frustrating to see how people across social media continue to fabricate stories and believe hearsay. Buksan n'yo naman mga isip nyo, hirap kasi sa mga tao ang dali dali malason ng fake news.

Some of you are really too dumb. You kept demanding answers from the players, and now that they’re finally speaking up, you’re calling it scripted? Stop attacking the victims, too. They’ve already been through enough.

SAM AND KIEFFFF 🥺 ANG SAKIT SA PUSO HUHU 😢💔

Anong basura na ebidensya yan na may picture? Na isasama ang buong pamilya para tumanggap ng suhol tapos mapapapicture pa sa mga tao pagkatapos? Ginagago ninyo ang taumbayan. Walang kwenta. Kagaguhan. Kasinungalingan. Humanda kayo sa mga kasong isasampa laban sa inyo.
