Earlier, DLSU head coach Juno Sauler tendered his resignation from the team after failing to steer the Archers into the Final Four this season.

Ayo was a trending topic on Twitter on Wednesday night with rumors were rife that he would be tasked to take the reins from Sauler.

The former Ginebra coach led the Archers to a championship title in 2013, but the team missed the finals the following season after falling to Far Eastern University in the semis.

La Salle has yet to issue an official statement on Ayo's appointment. —Marisse Panaligan/JST, GMA News
