6/18/2013 - 2014 SF Marial Shayok (6-8, 205, 3.5★) | Overall Rank: 109 | Position Rank: 24 has received an offer from Marquette.
From Zagsblog on June 5th:
"Marial Shayok is one of the most athletic wings in the Class of 2014, and he says a few schools are currently working the hardest for his services.
The 6-foot-6, 200-pound Canadian who plays for Blair (N.J.) Academy listed West Virginia, Providence, Boston College, St. Louis, VCU and Cincinnati in that group.
"Those schools are coming at me the hardest right now," he told SNY.tv Wednesday.
Minnesota, Villanova, Rutgers, Seton Hall and Kansas State are also in the mix.
Shayok said he hasn't decided on any visits and won't until August.
Before then, he will play with the CIA Bounce AAU team and also hopes to make the Canadian U19 team for this summer's FIBA U19 World Championship for Men, which runs June 27-July 7 in Prague.
Training for the U19 team begins Sunday in Toronto, and is expected to include Kansas commit Andrew Wiggins and Syracuse-bound Tyler Ennis.
As for Shayok, Blair coach Joe Mantegna says he has "tons of upside as his jumper improves."
"He can be a top-flight competitor with his elite mental makeup," he said.
CIA Bounce coach Tony McIntyre added: "He's an outstanding scorer. He's a long , athletic, hard-worker with a great body and can score in a variety of ways."
BTW, he didn't make the U19 team.
6'6, 200, or 6'8, 205?
Hope 208.

Did you note that he was trying out for Canadian team? He would not be on US Team.

Yes...that's what the article said right?

May the Schwartz be with you.

Thanks, looks like a thin small forward type like Steve Novak, if only he could shoot like him! Not to quick, needs some maturing but you always have to think 3 years down the road
and he might be pretty good by then.
Not much for video on Shayok, but here is a game in which he plays against Goodluck Okonoboh, another target for MU (longshot). Marial is #3 in blue and Goodluck is #7 in white.

Could we have a Schwartz and a Cohen?
Now that'd be something for broadcasters to talk about!

Maybe our next target will be Max Shapiro.
Have watched these guys in person.
That is all.

2 more minorities at MU, are they really Jewish? Like that Cohen guy, good family name, and Schwartz was my first girl friends name, what goes around comes around, love to talk
about them for a few years. I will get good play out of it.
Not that Schwartz will be relied upon as a 3 point shooter, but every shot he took in that video he brought the ball almost to his knees as part of his release. Reminded me of Bill Cartwright.
