One of the state’s top small forwards from the class of 2026 paid a visit to the Plains last weekend and raved about his experience.

In an interview with AuburnUndercover ($), Holt says that he enjoyed the intense practice that head coach [autotag]Bruce Pearl[/autotag] orchestrates, and the team’s “hate to lose” mentality.
Holt’s recruitment is starting to heat up, as he has received five offers to this point. Georgia, Alabama, and Ole Miss are among those who have offered, but the Tigers were the first to do so on April 11, 2022. As a freshman, Holt led the Buckhorn Bucks to the Class 6A championship and was voted as the classification’s Player of the Year by the Alabama Sports Writers Association.
