5-star shooting guard Caleb Holt to be in Auburn on Saturday

As Saturday’s game against Kentucky, Auburn basketball target and five-star shooting guard Caleb Holt is set to make a visit to the Plains.

[autotag]Caleb Holt[/autotag] has become one of the most prolific guards in the 2026 recruiting class, and as of late, he has been receiving some attention from a few high-power programs. Now, the five-star out of Buckhorn High School (Ala.) is making yet another trip to the Plains on Saturday.

Holt makes the trip back to Auburn to see the Tigers take on the Kentucky Wildcats in a game that will feature ESPN’s College Gameday as well. This is Holt’s first trip back to the campus since he last visited in September.

The race to land the dynamic shooting guard has been, and will continue to be very competitive. Amongst the big schools who have offered Holt are the likes of Alabama, Ole Miss and Houston, plus many others.

The Alabama native is currently topping the charts as the top-ranked recruit in the state according to the On3 industry ranking, is the No. 2 shooting guard and the No. 4 overall player in his class.

Should the Tigers land him soon, Holt would be the program’s first commit in the 2026 class.
