Four-star 2028 class linebacker Skylar Alston is scheduled to visit Kentucky this Saturday, altering his previously planned trip to Tennessee. The North Carolina-based prospect, rated as the 204th overall player in his class by 247Sports, currently holds a scholarship offer from Kentucky. Alston has previously completed unofficial visits to Tennessee and remains a target for several major college football programs. This visit coincides with the Kentucky season opener at Kroger Field in Lexington. Getting the 6'2", 210-pound defender on campus represents a recruiting opportunity for the Kentucky coaching staff as they seek to increase their collection of high-rated talent. No formal commitment from the linebacker is expected during the immediate visit.
