"After an 0-3 start that included back-to-back losses to Mountain West Conference teams, Foster was dismissed on Sunday in a move that showed the Bruins will no longer accept their status as the laughingstocks of the college football world, a person with knowledge of the decision not authorized to discuss it publicly. Tim Skipper will serve as the interim coach for the rest of the season as the school commences a search for a permanent replacement."
"UCLA was outscored by a 108-43 margin in its three losses, leading to trolling tweets from the Big Sky and Pac-12 conferences in addition to widespread ridicule from national media figures who noted that the Bruins had clinched last place in the Mountain West and were the only remaining winless team in the Big Ten. Foster, who compiled a 5-10 record in a little more than one full season,"
DeShaun Foster was dismissed after 15 games and five wins following an 0-3 start that included consecutive losses to Mountain West teams. The Bruins were heavily outscored in those three defeats and drew nationwide ridicule and trolling from other conferences. Tim Skipper will serve as interim coach while the school searches for a permanent replacement. Foster compiled a 5-10 record in just over one season and is owed roughly $6.43 million under his five-year contract, with the athletic department covering the buyout. The hire drew scrutiny because Foster had no coordinator experience when hired.
