Keep an eye on Carson Shanks from North Dakota. 7 foot grad transfer, Mullins recently followed him on twitter.
He put up decent numbers last season but fouls a lot so he only averaged 12 mpg last season. Killed UNI with 17 points and 8 boards in 17 minutes. Would be a great body to have.

He also followed back along with most of the team, Porter, the MBB page, and the school page. Verbal Commits has him as a verbal commit to Utah St, but in his twitter bio it says "Loyola-Chicago Rambler Basketball Player" I think he might be a "silent commit"
Getting pretty excited about next years core. Our depth is really good if even 3 out of the 5 newcomers pan out. I could see him playing 10-15mpg... about what Kirby contributed, maybe a bit more if he stays out of foul trouble. The difference is Shanks has a more polished offensive game and can go up and dunk it when open. Also looks like a good locker room guy to have, great to take some pressure off Krutwig in his freshmen season. Also gives him a good body to practice against as well.
