Talking about Jones as an OT not Day.

oopsies my bad. I have no idea how I mixed that up, and was actually wondering to myself as I typed it "where the hell did these guys here anything about Sheldon Day playing OT".

Any yea Jones definitely has the body type to play OL, but if we were to land him I think that would be more likely to solidify Niklas' switch over to offense rather than Jones who clearly has the body type to play SDE or slide inside when we go with a 4 man front.

William Mahone tweeted Steve Wiltfong asking how many stars Sheldon was after news of the announcement came in. Hmmm.

William Mahone, you know you want to come to Notre Dame. Be apart of something special.

Worried about Schutt taking his spot? Or do we take two DT/NTs?
Click to expand...

Just to clarify for everyone (because this is not intuitive and a very legit question) but Day is a DE and Schutt is a NG. Schutt is the only NG we are recruiting, so really no one can take his spot. This commit is great because (if) we add Schutt it gives 2 great linemen in this class as a base and then we can hold out for Jarron... and even if we miss it won't be a big deal. Our staff wants to take 2 DL but will take 3 if it's the right 3.

I personally wasn't that high on Day until he went to The Opening and got DL MVP. He is apparently a kid with great attitude/effort. Can never have enough of those kids and he definitely has the talent to be a big piece of this defensive puzzle.

I know this is twitter so take what you want from it but someone asked Mahone if he was next and he replied "maybe". This is after Day committed.

Dissect that one word into anything, but I am optimistic so maybe that is a good thing.

Aaron Lynch, Stephon Tuitt, Sheldon Day, and possibly Tommy Schutt and Jarron Jones. All on the same defensive line. That is beutiful and scary at the same time

Awesome pickup! This defense is going to be absolutely nasty in a year or two. Also my friend is a huge Michigan fan and was very high on Day so he's pretty pissed right now.

I've heard just the opposite and most of the players listed as DT on the recruiting sites were recruited as NT with Jarron Jones being one of the exceptions as they see him as a DE or and OL before they view him as a NT.

On another note, you can add Day to the group of stud players we have with dreads.
