Tim Banks has been hired as Tennessee’s defensive coordinator on Josh Heupel’s coaching staff.
Banks comes to Tennessee after serving in the same capacity at Penn State since 2016 under head coach James Franklin.
“I would like to thank Tim for everything he has contributed to our program,” Franklin said of Banks on Twitter. “This was a great opportunity for him to be the defensive play caller and DC at Tennessee.
“I have spent seven seasons on staffs with Tim at Maryland and Penn State, and I have enjoyed watching him develop into the coach he is today. Tim and his wife, Robin, will always have a special place in my family’s heart. We are excited for Tim and his family and wish him nothing but success in the future.”
