Brothers Jim and Jon Heacock.Jim Heacock:Current defensive coordinator at Ohio State. Other coaching jobs he's had in his career:1996-2004: Ohio State Defensive Line Coach1988-1995: Illinois State Head Coach1983-1987: Washington Defensive Line Coach1981-1982: Bowling Green Defensive Coordinator1978-1980: Bowling Green Defensive Line Coach1975-1977: Muskingum Defensive Coordinator1973-1975: Muskingum Defensive Back CoachHe actually employed Urban Meyer in 1988 as his outside linebackers coach. ________________________________________________________________________________Jon Heacock:He is currently(unfortunately) the defensive coordinator of the Golden Flushes. Other jobs before turning to the dark side:2001-2009: Youngstown State Head Coach2000: Youngstown State Defensive Coordinator1997-1999: Indiana Defensive Coordinator1992-1996: Youngstown State Defensive Coordinator1991: Youngstown State Defensive Backs Coach1990: Army assistant coach1988-1989: Michigan grad assistant1985-1987: West Liberty Defensive Coordinator (also the defensive line and secondary coach)1984: Stuebenville (HS) assistant coach1983: Toledo grad assistant defensive line coach__________________________________________Both of these brothers have a couple things in common. Alumni of West Branch High School, and a passion for coaching. However, my passion for coaching is basketball, not football. They're putting me in tough spots to root for them being at OSUcks and Can't State. So I guess I'll stick to rooting for the Warriors of West Branch and wear my Zip colors in front of them.
