It's been a long traveled road for USC Trojans defensive back Zion Branch. After going through a procedure in the spring, Branch has had a slower start to the season then he probably would have liked to. Branch said his relationship with assistant defensive backs coach Taylor Mays is one of the biggest tools he uses. Mays racked up over 240 tackles and five interceptions as he finished as a consensus All-American at USC in 2008 and was a second round pick in the 2010 NFL draft.
