Holt covered the Razorbacks for decades, dating back to 1981 when they were still in the Southwest Conference.
In addition to covering Arkansas, Holt became well-known across the SEC for his appearances at SEC Media Days. Tributes to Holt from those who knew and worked with him have been pouring in on social media since news of his passing was first shared earlier this week.
Numerous coaches, including Eric Musselman and John Calipari, were amongst those who paid tribute to Holt this week. SEC commissioner Greg Sankey also released a statement on his passing.
Texas and Georgia will face off in the SEC Championship Game at 4 p.m. ET on Saturday afternoon.
