Cayden Daughtry, a 5‑star point guard from Calvary Christian Academy in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, is set to arrive in Fayetteville for an official visit from October 30 through November 1. The trip marks the latest step in a recruiting journey that has already taken him to a dozen of the nation’s premier programs.
During Nike’s Peach Jam, Daughtry posted eye‑catching numbers: 32.3 points, 6.1 assists, 4.9 rebounds and 2.9 steals per game, while shooting 58.6% from the field and 48.8% from three‑point range. Those performances not only highlighted his scoring and playmaking abilities but also earned him an official offer from the Arkansas Razorbacks.
Daughtry’s itinerary includes stops at several other powerhouse schools, such as Florida State, Tennessee, Iowa, Connecticut, Florida and Miami, before he narrows his focus to Arkansas. The visit will give him a chance to experience the campus environment, meet the coaching staff and assess the program’s fit with his long‑term goals.
A Rising Star in the National Rankings
Ranked as the No. 10 overall recruit and the No. 3 point guard in the country, Daughtry joins a select group of five‑star prospects who are actively courting top collegiate programs. His decision could have ripple effects across the recruiting landscape, influencing both his own future and the dynamics of upcoming recruiting classes.
The timing of his visit coincides with the NCAA’s early signing period for basketball, which opens on November 11 and runs through November 18. Prospective student‑athletes often use this window to finalize commitments, making Daughtry’s upcoming decision a focal point for analysts and fans alike.
