  • ... that Jarren Horton's childhood dream was to serve as a defensive coordinator under his father with the Pittsburgh Steelers, and now he serves in that role under him with the Pittsburgh Maulers? Source: Pittsburgh Post-Gazette (paywalled) ("It was a full-circle moment for Ray Horton when he was offered the head coaching job for the Maulers back in January ... His former teammate offering him a chance to coach with his son was what sealed the deal. 'It was kind of a hard decision but an easy one at the same time,' Horton said. 'It was hard because I was enjoying what I was doing. And it was easy because my son’s here and he’s the defensive coordinator.' ... Ray then moved to coaching defensive backs and eventually became a defensive coordinator during his 25-year coaching career in the NFL. Six years of that was spent with the Steelers, where Jarren really fell in love with the sport. He served as the team’s ball boy at the age of 11. 'When I was in Pittsburgh as a ball boy, I knew I wanted to one day be the coordinator; he’d be the head coach,” Jarren said. “I don’t know that I manifested it, but it’s definitely been a dream of mine growing up.'"
