Brunner joined the Hawkeyes under Coach Steve Alford and immediately made an impact by playing in every game of the season. His career at Iowa earned him a 2nd Team All-Big Ten selection his junior season and a 1st Team All-Big Ten selection his senior season.  His consistent play allowed Brunner to finish his career with the Hawkeyes as the All-Time rebound leader with 990.  He also stands 6th All-Time in blocks (104), 6th All-Time in free throw attempts (566) and 9th All-Time in field goals (553).  However, all of those final statistics were not enough for the under-sized forward to get drafted into the NBA.  Brunner headed overseas and joined Verviers-Pepinster in Belgium for the 2006-07 season.  His first season abroad he finished 4th in rebounding, averaging 7.4 a game.  The following season, he remained in the First Division in Belgium, but joined BC Telindus Oostende which won the championship the previous season.  For the 2008-09 season, Brunner headed to Italy to play in Serie A with Angelico Biella.  For the 2009-10 season, Brunner remained in Serie A, but joined Sutor Montegranaro where he started and averaged 12.7 PPG and 8.3 RPG. After the season, Brunner and his team agreed to part ways & Brunner signed with the Swiss team Benetton Treviso, agreeing to a two year deal.
