AMES, Iowa (AP) Prep forward Brady Ernst says he'll play for Iowa State next season.
Ernst, who is 6-foot-9 and 215 pounds, is the first recruit for new coach Steve Prohm. He is from Clinton, Iowa.
Ernst adds depth to the Cyclones front court, which is talented but thin beyond Georges Niang, Jameel McKay and Abdel Nader.
Ernst tore the ACL in his right knee in late February. But Ernst tells The Associated Press that he'll be able to resume basketball activities by late August at the earliest.
