Malik Hall from Sunrise Christian (Kan.) is a class of 2019 prospect who has quietly become one of the top small forwards in the country. Recently Hall has blown up and schools believe he will be a gem pickup for whichever program lands him.

Spoke to a couple of coaches, two of them calling him "a complete animal" and an all-out "beast."

After the first live period and his first AAU tournament of the spring, the 6-foot-7, 190-pounder landed offers from TCU, Florida State, Louisville, and Minnesota.

This weekend while running with Mokan Basketball, Villanova, Memphis, Oregon, Purdue, Oklahoma, Minnesota, Memphis, Mizzou, Northwestern, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio State, Notre Dame, UCLA, Butler, Kansas, Virginia, Cincinnati, Florida, USC, and Iowa all watched Hall.

I was able to catch up with Hall earlier for a couple minutes to speak about his recruitment including how high the Ducks are on his list.

Jake: How has the contact been with the Oregon staff?

Hall: I hear from them 2-3 times a week.

Jake: What has Coach Altman and the staff told you?

Hall: They've told me I can be the next best wing for them.

Jake: Which schools are on you hard other than Oregon?

Hall: Oklahoma, Purdue, and Mizzou are the other ones on me hard right now.

Hall and I then spoke about his next tournament this upcoming weekend and told me a lot of schools including Oregon will be in to watch him.

Also asked Hall about a timetable, didn't really have one but will cut his list during summer.

He added Oregon's chances are high to make his final list which is a good sign for Ducks fans. Eventually, Hall should (will) become a five-star prospect. He is currently ranked as the No. 55 overall prospect in the 2019 class per the 247Sports Composite.
