As children, we always want to make our parents proud, but for the first time since I started writing, I already know my parents will disapprove of what I am about to say.

As a true freshman in 2009, Johnthan Banks found his way into the starting lineup as a safety when starter Zach Smith was sidelined with a concussion, or as Dan Mullen put it, he "got dinged up." Banks went on to become the only player to intercept all-everything Florida quarterback Tim Tebow and return it for a touchdown &mdash and he did it twice.
