Kentucky basketball was set to host Deron Rippey Jr. for a visit earlier this month, but that trip was postponed to a later date.
Now, the 5-star point guard has rescheduled his visit to Kentucky for October 3, according to Jacob Polacheck of KSR. It will be one of many visits Kentucky is set to host in the coming months.

The 6-foot-2, 175-pound Rippey plays for Blair Academy in New Jersey and is ranked as high as eighth overall in the class of 2026 by Rivals. 247 Sports has him 17th, while ESPN has him 18th.
Back in July, Rippey announced a list of 12 schools under consideration that included Kentucky, North Carolina, Alabama, Duke, Louisville, Tennessee, Kansas, Indiana, Texas, Miami, North Carolina State, and Syracuse.
Of all the point guards Kentucky has recruited, Rippey may just end up being the best one. Let’s see how much of an impact this visit makes on Rippey’s recruitment.
