A member of the Texas Athletics Hall of Honor and prominent figure at The University of Texas for more than 50 years, Little was 81.
Legendary University of Texas Athletics Administrator Bill Little passed away peacefully surrounded by family Friday evening in Austin. He was 81. Celebration of life services are pending and forthcoming.
Little was the face — and often the voice — of Longhorn athletics for more than 50 years. Long before sports reporting turned digital, Little, as sports editor of The Daily Texan, was hammering out copy on a manual Royal typewriter.
