NASH Racela, the head coach of the UAAP defending basketball champions Far Eastern University, is set to headline the next episode of SportsIQ, Inquirer’s weekly sports talk show, on Thursday.

With the biggest collegiate sports league set to open in a few weeks, Racela will discuss FEU’s bid for a repeat basketball title.

Racela steered the Tamaraws to its first basketball title in 10 years after beating University of Santo Tomas 2-1 in the best-of-three finals series.

The Tamaraws, though, will lose several key players from its championship team, including top gunner Mac Belo.

SportsIQ airs every Thursday from 8 to 9 p.m. over Radyo 990 and Inquirer 990 TV. It is also live on the Inquirer.net Facebook page, Youtube account, and Twitter, making it the first live omni-platform sports talk show.

It is hosted by Inquirer assistant sports editor Francis T. J. Ochoa and Inquirer.net sports editor Celest Flores-Colina.
