It is like an open house for prospective recruits.

It sounds pretty good. Gives some more oppurtunities and that is what everyone needs.

Junior day is a type of unofficial visit. It is usually (but not always) invite only and usually includes anywhere from 10-30 kids. These kids are all the juniors (senior-to-be) that a specific college will be recruiting heavily for that year. They usually have a meal, attend a basketball game (or some other athletic event), get a short tour of the campus and football facilites, and are given the oppurtunity to meet the coaches face-to-face. Some junior days are reserved for the top 10 or so junior recruits for that season, some are open to all juniors that school will be recruiting, some are open for any junior that is interested in that school.

UK has already hosted 1 junior day. It was invite only and they invited roughly 30 kids. Once spring practice starts I am pretty sure they will host another one.

 

Almost every school hosts 2 or 3 junior days. 1 is usually for the schools top 10 or so junior recruits, 1 is usually invite only, and 1 is usually like an open-house for any junior players interested in that school.
