 A walk-on during the 2021 fall camp Hohlt impressed his coaches and appeared in two games against Rutgers and Minnesota. During fall practices he earned defensive scout team player of the week as well as special teams scout team player of the week. Hohlt was not recruited out of high school, but Kevin Wright saw something in the young man and brough him to Bloomington.

Hohlt will be with a loaded defensive back group that includes Cam Jones and Jared Casey. Hohlt will be working hard to earn playing time and could see the field this season.
