C-Chol Marial- 7'1" - Class of 2019

[exray2345]

Has anyone seen him play? Guess he is at cheshire acadamy. Pretty impressive from the limited video i did see of him online. 7 foot 11" wingspan is insane ,according to NERR.com

 

[superjohn]

Holy cr~p, never seen anything like this kid. His wingspan is outrageous and moves way better than he should at that size and age.

 

[Kembacity]

Lets get this kid, I'm fine with us getting a center who is big and husky and nationally recognized, but there's something about that that just doesn't feel "UConn" enough to me. I want a kid on the end of the bench who is absurdly sized, extremely skinny, and still "learning the game" even if we have legit bigs

 

[chuckhusky]

Saw him play a few weeks ago at St. Thomas More. He is supposed to be around 15 yrs. old. Still raw but has skills, good hands, scores the ball, nice touch. Kid has a future.

 

[boog204]

This is awesome on many levels. First, he is very athletic for a kid his size/age. Secondly, he's posting up someone who is about 5-5 in that first "scene."

 

[Thirty Three]

Wow, impressive. I'd love to see him at UConn. Hell, I hope he does well just so I can say I played at the same school as him! (I was the starting point guard at Cheshire Academy in the mid-eighties...we sucked).

 

[huskyniner]

GET HIM

 

[chuckhusky]

One more pic. #12 is listed at 6'4".

 

[Matrim55]

Wow. I'll chime in with the exact same take as everyone else: I did not expect him to be such a fluid athlete.

It'll be a shame when he goes to UK.

Honestly not sure if this is meant to be a sarcastic post, but either way it made me laugh.

Come on Gringo, the sarcasm was thick as butter on that one.

I've read so much crazy on here, I wasn't sure to be honest. Maybe we should call the mayor and ask him if it was a sarcastic post...

 

[Wise2]

Maybe he can reclassify to 2016

The funniest part is @Kembacity had this mixup in another thread just prior:

Guy can't catch a break.

 

[TheRogers]

Please Ollie. He's in our back yard. Don't let him get away.

I think I'm learning that there's something about my sense of humor where a tinge of sarcasm is completely impossible to detect in writing. I usually try to be enough over the top that any like minded human can see that part and understand its sarcastic, but I guess I need some work

Me and some guys used to catch some good run at Cheshire Academy in the 70's-80's on weeknights and weekends. Always a good place to find a game or 15.

 

[Ricker]

Was not expecting between the legs type showboating - very very impressive in coordination and athleticism when I was expecting to see just tall and maybe a little bit of agility.

Haha. Sometimes I write something and think, "there's a not insignificant portion of the board that will not get this." For those posts I throw a /s at the end.

Hey Mauser. . . . . we may have played against each other back in the day at CA. I briefly met this kid along with #21 in the video at a local restaurant. He is a nice kid and absolutely huge. I don't remember #21's name but he is 6' 11" and Chol was noticeably taller. I didn't even mention the word University to him.

What's up DB good to hear form you. Work good?

If you played there back then a lot you will remember the big blonde haired dude, muscly lefty who was there basically all the time. I think Jim or something about 6'5" 250 not a bad player but definitely tough around the rim and great guy.

Take care of yourself. By the way Joe L plays in our outing in Mass most years do you get invited? If not I will make it happen if interested.

I never say things like this, but this kid should play no more than 1 year of college, for no other reason than that waif like frame isn't built for the long haul physically.

 

[Dogbreath2U]

Wow! What a prospect!

 

[Justin M]

I saw him play against Saint Thomas More, who sat at #1 of the prep school rankings for most of the year so far. He weighs 200 lbs, takes bad shots, and has poor basketball IQ. With that being said, he is 15 years old and also spent most of his time matched up against Omari Spellman (#14 in Class of 2016). Definitely a kid to keep an eye on, has a boat load of potential. Im sure he hasn't been a basketball player for too long.

That's cuz he's all arms and legs.

Seriously, he makes John "Spider" Salley (for those of you who watched the NBA in the late 80's to mid 90's) look more like John "Spiderling" Salley.
