ALAN HOLT
The long-time assistant succeeds Randy Nesbit who stepped down at the conclusion of the past basketball season.
Holt said, “It is really exciting” and that he is grateful to the administration for demonstrating their confidence in him. He had been serving as Interim Head Coach since last April.
New Interim Athletic Director David Lane said, “We are incredibly fortunate to have Coach Holt leading our men’s basketball team forward.”
Lane added, “His energy and expertise are incredibly valuable and will be a great asset in the progression of the program.”
Holt is a native of Anderson County, where he graduated from Anderson County High School before playing for Bryan College in Dayton. Upon graduating from Bryan, Holt was hired as Roane State’s assistant men’s basketball coach, a role he worked in for six seasons.
Holt, 28, says he is excited to have the opportunity at such a young age noting, “This has been a program near and dear to my heart. I’ve invested a lot of time – sweat equity – in the program and am grateful to be able to stay here, just in a different role now.”
