Senior: Freddie Banks

[tony]

Last year we were all saying how the whole team needed to step up to turn things around. I'm not sure anybody stepped up more than Freddie Banks. 48 tackles, 6 pass breakups and 7 passes defended this year after only 1 tackle last year.

Anybody have any insight in what happened - my memory is bad. I kind of expect that Freddie was injured last year because he had a good 2008 season. He's going to be hard to replace. Thanks, Freddie.

I don't remember anyone talking about Banks on here in the spring for fall. All of a sudden he was starting and a major contributor. What a great senior season this kid had!

Nicholls State football head coach Charlie Stubbs looks to add more unity to his coaching staff with the additions of three new members.

Stubbs brought in Steve Adams to be his new special teams coordinator and coach the safeties, Freddie Banks to coach the cornerbacks, and Brandon Nowlin to fill the tight ends coaching position. Stubbs promoted former tight ends coach Matt Clark to offensive line coach.

Vigen will be looking for a new DC. Former Bison Freddie Banks moving on from Montana St after one season to Colorado St.

excellent..then he can assist NDSU in winning the title & feel no remorse as he's off to CSU.

PS Freddie was instrumental in development of Marcus Williams & Josh Gatlin when he played...I forgot that

Coach Banks is a stud. I was hoping he'd fly under the radar for one more season...but I'm happy for him. It will be interesting to see who Vigen brings in to replace him. I would be surprised if it wasn't somebody else with NDSU ties.
