Brust Drama Ends

Joe Henricksen, the Sun-Times’ basketball expert, reports that Mundelein senior Ben Brust will attend Wisconsin.

The 6-foot-2 guard made headlines when he was released from his commitment to Iowa but was disallowed to sign with another Big Ten school. Wisconsin fought on his behalf to waive that rule and ultimately won. He will join Deerfield’s Duje Dukan on the Badgers for the 2010-2011 season.
