Injuries can derail promising careers.

The leg injuries he suffered leading to some of the issues he dealt with here. I believe it was well known when he came here that his minutes would be spotty behind Aluma because injuries slowed Ojiako’s development and Pemsl could help more than John could. Big John is another case of injury derailing a promising career. Everything you said is correct and I hope Beran balls out if he comes here. We’re going to need production and defense out of that position

If Mike Young were the coach when Beran were making his original decision..

Methinks Beran will be another Cordell Pemsl. **

He's a way better schematic fit than Pemsl.

Getting a big who’s an 85% FT shooter would be huge.
Zanderhokie 04/23/23 09:44 PM ET
Totally disagree-not even close**

I don't get that comparison. They seem to be completely different players

Pemsl had a really bad back. He was a very promising player at Iowa and
millmtnhokie 04/23/23 03:27 PM ET
Pemsl's minutes decreased every single year he played...
GCHokie34 04/23/23 05:30 PM ET
True. A kid came to Iowa the year after Pemsl named Luka Garza
millmtnhokie 04/23/23 07:43 PM ET
Beran played 3 years with Pete Nance and Ryan Young

How he individually rebounds doesn't matter...
GCHokie34 04/23/23 12:12 PM ET
It seems to me if we get Beran, we have improved our D dramatically. He can
