He received an offer out of Durham back in July, becoming one of the program's first full-fledged targets in the 2026 cycle.

"Right now, I have no visits planned, but I'm going to start asking coaches when it's a good time to come back for officials," Smith explained to 247Sports' Dushawn London this week.

"Arkansas, Kentucky, Louisville, Georgetown, Duke, and Syracuse are some of the schools recruiting me the hardest right now." London noted that Kentucky is the only staff that has conducted an in-home visit with Smith, whose "recruitment remains open and in its early stages." Jordan Smith Jr.

currently ranks No.

4 overall, No.

1 among shooting guards, and No.

1 in Virginia on the 247Sports 2026 Composite.
