Caleb Holt, a top-5 prospect in the 2026 class and a Huntsville native, has moved up his official visit to Alabama and will now be visiting this weekend.

The five-star shooting guard was originally scheduled to visit the Crimson Tide the weekend of October 3rd, but is now visiting early.

Holt has been to Tuscaloosa many times for unofficial visits.

Ole Miss, Arkansas, and Kentucky have previously hosted him for official visits. He’s also scheduled to see Auburn.

Holt recently announced he would be transferring to Prolific Prep for his senior season, which recently moved to Fort Lauderale, Florida. He played his junior season at Grayson High in Loganville, Georgia, but began his high school career at Buckhorn High in New Market, Alabama.

Holt is ranked as the No. 4 overall recruit in the 2026 cycle, according to Rivals Top-150 Player Rankings. He’s also the No. 1 shooting guard prospect. 

Holt a standout at USA Basketball U19 Training Camp

According to On3’s Jamie Shaw, Holt was a standout at the USA Basketball U19 Training Camp earlier this summer prior to making the final roster.

5-Star SG Caleb Holt is the ultimate glue guy. Maybe he does not stand out in any one way, but he elevates the floor of whatever team he is on. He is an instinctive defender, guarding multiple positions. He is comfortable as a secondary ball handler and he moves the ball. How does he consistently score will be next steps for him, but he consistently has found some sorts of production.

What Holt is looking for in a school

In a previous interview with Rivals, Holt discussed what he wants in his future college program. 

“I want them to actually need me. So I want to go somewhere I’m needed. If I feel like, you know, they recruit other five stars, which is cool to play with some of those guys. But I want to have somewhere I can get loose and play my game without some other five-star wanting the same. So yeah, just the best fit. A coach that’s gonna let me defend and I wanted to defend. A coach is gonna let me play my offensive game. Of course, make the right plays and everything. I’m always gonna make the right play, but a coach who believes in me to do the stuff I can showcase.”
