Coach Jeff Banks, the Texas Longhorns’ special teams coordinator, is going viral after tying the knot with his girlfriend Dani Thomas, famously known as the ‘pole assassin.’ Their unconventional relationship has captured the attention of many, especially after an incident involving Thomas’ pet monkey, which allegedly attacked a child on Halloween. This unexpected turn of events has sparked conversations and raised eyebrows.
Coach Banks, known for his expertise in coaching and leadership, has had a successful career in the football industry. His dedication to the sport and his ability to mentor players have earned him respect and admiration. However, his personal life took center stage when he married Thomas, a former stripper with a unique stage name, ‘pole assassin.’

‘Incredible 72 hours with our family and closest friends,’ Banks captioned a selfie of the newlyweds on the dance floor at the reception.
‘We truly love you all now off to Barcelona for our honeymoon,’ he added.
Other staff members at the University of Texas also shared snaps from the big day, including a sweet photo of the couple sharing their first dance.
Although Banks and Thomas haven’t been making headlines since 2021, the pair’s relationship has been far from drama-free.
Banks separated from his wife Kori, with whom she shares daughter, Sydnei and sons Gage and Tanner, in late 2017.
By February 2018, he was dating Thomas.
The adult entertainer, who once appeared on Jerry Springer with her monkey Gia, was criticized in 2021 after her pet allegedly bit a child in a Haunted House she set up in her yard for Halloween.
She angrily denied the claims in a since-deleted Twitter post, per Sports Illustrated.
‘I had a haunted house on one side gated off/ he had no permission to go pass the gate i had no idea he went in my back yard,’ she wrote at the time.
‘Neither did i know anything about a bite ! Until a doctor of neighborhood told me the treat a small bite. No parent have contacted me about it,’ she continued.
‘A 11 /12 year old child should know better then to enter someone yard without permission and old enough to also follow the rules. The rules were when u get to the gate turn around and come back out for candy every other parent and child did so,’ she added.
‘People lie so much it’s ridiculous ! Stop believing everything u hear ! And more of what u see ! SMH !’
Banks, who joined the staff at the University of Texas in 2021, became the first special teams coordinator to receive a salary of $1 million or greater.
His wedding – and subsequent European honeymoon – comes at a busy time for Texas’ football program, which is embarking on its debut season in the Southeastern Conference (SEC).
The marriage of Coach Jeff Banks and Dani Thomas, known as the ‘pole assassin,’ has captured the interest of many, highlighting the unpredictable nature of love and relationships. While the incident involving Thomas’ pet monkey has raised questions and concerns, it is essential to remember that every story has multiple perspectives.
