Ironman8 · Jul 9, 2011

Per 24/7's Justin Hopkins:

Sheldon Day was on fire today. He absolutely tore up the middle on just about every snap.

Saturday running thoughts from The Opening...

I would really love to land this kid. He's from Indy, where Jeff Burris played and I think it would be great to start getting kids from Indy again.

Jeff Burris played his HS ball in Rock Hill, S.C. After retiring from the NFL he coached DBs for an Indy HS by the name of Warren Central, which might rings some bells.

There was a press release in May '11 that Burris was named the CB coach for the UFL's Hartford Colonials.

Oops, my bad...I thought I had read that he returned to coach HS ball where he played. Sorry for the mix-up.

Day is literally the first guy I would be upset about Michigan getting. Everyone else I am quite "meh" towards and most we didn't offer/push for.

We lead right? could he possibly be next?

Yeah if someone else gets Day besides ND I would be surprised, pretty sure he's yours.

Hope he picks ND, but I have seen stranger things happen. This kid really stepped to the plate in Oregon and really had an impressive showing. Wherever Day ends up, he will do well.

Rivals High - Notebook: Southern trip a bonus for Day
Dallas Jackson

HOOVER, Ala. - It is rare for an Indiana high school football team to meander its way to the Deep South, but with the National Select 7-on-7 being held just outside of Birmingham that is exactly where prospect-heavy Indianapolis (Ind.) Warren Central finds itself this weekend.

As such, four-star defensive tackle Sheldon Day accompanied his team as a high-profile cheerleader and spectator, and used the free time to take an unofficial trip to visit Auburn with assistant coach Greg Brookey.

"The visit went great," Day said. "It was really nice. The campus was beautiful and the coaches were intelligent."

Warren Central's Sheldon Day made an unofficial visit to Auburn on Thursday.
Day is currently the No. 3 prospect in Indiana and holds offers to more than 20 schools, but he did not add to his tally with his recent trip.

"They didn't offer me today but I felt like they were going to," he said. "They told me they wanted to talk it over with the head coach (Gene Chizik."

With two dozen offers, Day is still working to narrow his list.

"I don't have a top five or anything like that," he said. "I am working to get down to that but I don't know when that is going to be."

He did have a fairly specific list for which teams would get his five official visits, although the visits read like a sports fanatic road trip.

"Michigan for the Notre Dame game, Auburn for the Alabama game, Virginia Tech for the North Carolina game, Tennessee for the LSU game, and Stanford for the Oregon game," Day said.

"It is hard to pick but I think those would be the ones right now."

One place he canceled was this weekend's scheduled trip to LSU.

"The coaches went on vacation so it doesn't seem worth it," Day said. "I don't know if I will get a chance to get back down there unless I take an official."

Day said not to expect a decision soon.

"I will probably wait until after the season but before signing day," he said. "I don't really like to be bothered with the recruiting stuff so probably mid-December."

DT #7 on Scout

GoldenIsThyFame · Jul 27, 2011

Don't get me wrong, I love that Sheldon is ranked that high, but Scout gives out 5* rankings like my great grandmother gave out Fig Newtons.

Yeah they are quite lax on the 5* tag.... but by earning MVP at The Opening he clearly deserves to be a Top 10 DT at this point.

BeauBenken · Jul 27, 2011

It's almost crazy to think you can be the 7th best at your position and still get a 5 star. Either way, congratz to Day on his new rankings.

Whiskeyjack · Jul 27, 2011

Scout doesn't rank nationally, but they give a 5 :s:

to the top 7-8 guys at each position. It's their equivalent of a Top 100 list.

BleedBlueGold · Jul 27, 2011

Can someone clarify the discussion (that was interrupted by the rumor of his verbal) on whether or not Day is a DT/NG, SDE, or just one of those power players that can be moved around once he's signed? I'd like to ask the same question about Jones and Schutt as well. These three guys seem to be high on ND. If there's any chance we land all three or even two of the three...which positions do they project?

I'm going to guess Jones and Day are power player types...Schutt is a DT/NG

BeauBenken · Jul 27, 2011

Day is supposed to be a SDE/DT swing man, right? It's what I've read at least.
