DeShaun Foster, UCLA Agree to Contract as New HC After Chip Kelly's Exit for OSU

Former UCLA running back DeShaun Foster is the school's new head coach.

"We are looking for a coach with integrity, energy and passion; someone who is a great teacher, who develops young men, is a great recruiter and fully embraces the NIL landscape to help our student-athletes," UCLA athletic director Martin Jarmond said in a statement.

Foster—who also served as the team's running backs coach between 2017-23—will reportedly take over for the departing Chip Kelly, who is off to Ohio State to serve as Ryan Day's offensive coordinator.
