MANILA - He is breaking new ground as the first coach of Filipino descent to call the shots for an NCAA Division 1 school, but working in the Philippines will always remain an option for Mike Magpayo.
Speaking on the Coaches Unfiltered podcast presented by SMART, Magpayo said he would "absolutely" consider a move to the Philippines to be a coach. "I've always told Josh Reyes that, 'Hey, if you need help.' He actually asked me for a couple of things a couple of years ago," he added. "I'd love to just help, be a part of it."
While he is excited for his upcoming season with UC Riverside, Magpayo says he keeps the Philippines in his mind when thinking about his future.
