The best way to understand the importance of Sevyn Banks to this secondary is to hear one of Ohio State’s younger cornerbacks talk about him.
“Sevyn? Sevyn’s real good. I learn a lot from him,” sophomore Ryan Watts said a few days ago. “I'd say everything he does, off man, press man, I learn everything. I use his tapes for teach tapes. So how I learned to use my hands and my feet, I learned that off of Sevyn. He'll teach me a lot.”
Being the cornerback used by fellow Buckeyes as teach tape is a privilege reserved for the very best in what has been one of the most talented position rooms in recent history.
