Hubert Davis and the North Carolina Tar Heels have a new target in the 2026 recruiting class. After watching him on the Adidas 3SSB circuit, the Tar Heels saw enough of small forward Caleb Holt.
And on Sunday night, they officially entered the recruitment for the talented prospect.
Holt took to X (formerly Twitter) to announce he had received an offer from the Tar Heels in his recruitment. He posted a few photos to show the offer, including a throwback of former UNC guard Kenny Smith.
The New Market, Alabama native has drawn the attention of Davis and the Tar Heels’ staff in 2024 and was finally rewarded with the offer.

The 6-foot-5, 200-pound Holt is ranked No. 3 overall, the No. 1 small forward, and No. 1 player in the state of Alabama per the 247Sports recruiting rankings for the 2026 class.
Holt has a total of 15 offers in his recruitment with Alabama, Auburn, LSU, Cincinnati and Georgia Tech offering in addition to North Carolina.
He becomes the fifth player to earn an offer from North Carolina in the 2026 class, joining Cole Cloer, Tyran Stokes, Kendre Harrison, and Jordan Smith Jr. UNC has yet to land a commitment in the 2025 or 2026 recruiting classes.
