Banks was the co-defensive coordinator for the University of Cincinnati Bearcats in 2010 and 2011 under then-head coach Butch Jones. Banks has been the Nittany Lions' co-DC since 2016.
Banks also has served as defensive coordinator at Illinois and Central Michigan. He's been an assistant coach at Bowling Green, Ferris State, Memphis and Maryland.
