Dwayne Haskins and Tamia Haskins have a unique brother-sister relationship. Over the years, they’ve both learned tremendously from each other.

The bond between the siblings was on display on Saturday night in New York City, prior to the announcement of the Heisman Trophy winner. ESPN’s Tom Rinaldi spoke with Haskins’ mother and sister, and it was easy to tell there was a strong family relationship.

When Rinaldi asked Tamia what she had learned from Dwayne, she said that, most importantly, “dreams can come true.”

Haskins, of course, had dreamed of playing quarterback at Ohio State since he was a boy. And on Saturday night, he was one of just three college football players listed as a Heisman finalist.

Below is the video of Tamia explaining what Dwayne has taught her over the years.
