Since January, Vegas Safety's Recruitment Has Been Like Night and Day

Day comes to Montlake with Arizona, Iowa, Texas A&M, USC, Utah and the Huskies reportedly at the top of his list of nearly 20 offers.

He originally came out with a visit list on social media that had him traveling to Minnesota this week, but obviously things changed. The Gophers don't appear to be in the running any longer.

What everyone is interested in is a physical player coming off a junior season in which he piled up 110 tackles, 90 of which were solo. He also collected 16 tackles for loss, a sack, 6 pass break-ups, 2 interceptions, 2 forced fumbles and a blocked punt for an 11-1 team.

“I think I have a very unique skill set,” Day told his hometown Las Vegas Review-Journal newspaper. “When I’m trying to figure out the schools I go to, what system I fit into is the biggest thing I consider.”

Day's Faith Lutheran head coach was Mike Sanford Sr., who retired once the season ended. Sanford, 70, previously was a USC quarterback, the UNLV and Indiana State head coach, and an assistant coach for teams such as Notre Dame, Purdue, Stanford, Louisville and the former San Diego Chargers.

Even with that kind of coaching star power in his locker room, Day still has found his recruiting process, again ever changing, to be eye-opening.

"It’s been pretty cool, sometimes overwhelming, but it’s a blessing,” Day told the Review-Journal. “It’s awesome when you have head coaches, these legendary coaches from when I was watching college football when I was little. I never thought that Lincoln Riley would be calling me every day.”

Day can probably leave the coat and hoodie at home and break out some shorts on this trip.
