AP - As a ball boy for the Houston Oilers more than 25 years ago, Gary Kubiak never thought he would eventually coach the team that replaced them.

But he long vowed that he would return to Houston. On Thursday he did, and was introduced as the second coach of the Houston Texans.

"I always told my mom and dad I would be home someday," he said. "I think they started not to believe me after a while. But I finally made it back."

Kubiak, who spent the last 11 years as Denver's offensive coordinator, inherits a team that had a league-worst 2-14 record last season, costing Dom Capers his job. Kubiak reportedly signed a five-year contract worth about $10 million.
