Fran McCaffery and his Hawkeye squad were in need of help in the post after National Player of the Year Luka Garza graduated and Jack Nunge transferred. Fran targeted Filip Rebraca and closed the deal. Iowa also went after former Gopher Liam Robbins who chose Vanderbilt. Rebraca’s game probably fits more with what Iowa will do going forward X’s and O’s wise than Robbins.
No One Is Going to Replace Garza
It goes without saying, but I’m going to say it. Neither Robbins nor Rebraca was ever going to replace Luka Garza.
