College

At the University of Missouri in Columbia, Missouri, Marable was a three-time NCAA qualifier and two-time NCAA All-American, finishing third in 2008 and seventh in 2009. Marable finished his college career with 116 wins, which was the eighth-most in Missouri history at the time of his graduation.
