My gut says yes….but without seeing Rebraca play this year it’s hard to say
I say no. I think Rebraca has better range and will show much improvement at the offensive end this year.
Jaguar is now a Ford. Not the same as in the past...
Filip was playing some good ball at the end of last year. If Gabe played five years like Rebraca is, I think RSSr Gabe > Filip. But I think that this year’s version of Rebraca > Sr Olaseni
Totally different kind of players. If we go simply by numbers, as some do, I think Filip can match Gabe's Senior production of 8 pts and 5 boards. Gabe played with a lot more flair than Filip, but you can't deny Rebraca's work ethic. He battles every minute even though he is usually outsized by his opponent.
Very interesting question--I think that's pretty close. Connor and Pat had Filip on their podcast this week and they touched on how Filip has gained some of his offensive confidence back. So I am hopeful that he will provide more offensively this year and can stretch the floor a bit. I'll go with Filip.
Funny name, ta ta is a British expression for goodbye...
I thought Gabe used up his eligibility? I’ll take the player that can actually play. Jk.
Loved Gabe but right now I'd stay with Flip...
Guess I'm just tired of the football board. Everyone wanting the team to be something else, rather than just supporting what it is.
Rebraca is who the Hawks have. Certainly serviceable and plays his ass off
Without hesitation. Gabe is longer and could protect the rim. Rebraca may very well have a nice season, but Iowa is going to score regardless, I'd much rather have a defensive center.
Yep, this would be my reasoning. I think Rebraca is going to have a solid year and I think he played really well once he got settled in during the Big Ten season. But Gabe would give them something they don't have - the last thing they need is scoring.
