Mark Pope and his staff are starting to circle their top recruits in the class of 2026, as the AAU season winds down. With players starting to schedule visits for the fall, the Kentucky Wildcats will continue to look to host several in the coming months.
One player has already been scheduled for a visit to Lexington, but now that has been pushed back a week.
According to Wyatt Huff of SI.com, five-star guard Caleb Holt has rescheduled his visit to Kentucky to September 12-14. His official visit was
originally scheduled for September 5-7.
Holt, a 6-foot-5 and 200-pound guard out of Prolific Prep in Fort Lauderdale, is high on the staff’s big board as they look to maximize their spots available in the 2026 class. But with visits to Auburn and Alabama on the calendar as well, it will be a tough fight to pry him from Iron Bowl territory.
However, the Cats keeping a visit on the board is important. Hopefully, it will turn into some great news for the Cats in the next few months, as Holt would be a great addition to Pope’s offense and address the apparent roster needs that will be open on the 2026-27 roster at this point.
