UCLA All-American and NFL standout Foster is one of the most accomplished running backs in school history and returned to Westwood following his professional playing career to serve on the football staff. He completed his Bruin playing career second on the all-time touchdowns scored list (44), third on the school's all-time rushing list (3,194 yards) and fifth on the all-time Bruin scoring list (266 points). Foster was ranked 18th on the Pac-10 career rushing list when he left for the NFL, and his 722 career rushing attempts were the most in school history. As a senior in 2001, he led the Pac-10 in rushing (138.6 yards per game), scoring (9.75 points per game), and all-purpose yardage (154.75 yards per game). In his seven-year NFL career, he recorded more than 4,500 total yards and 16 touchdowns, including a 33-yard run in Super Bowl XXXVIII. During his tenure on the Bruin coaching staff, he has been instrumental in the development of some of the most productive running backs in the Pac-12, Paul Perkins, Joshua Kelley, Demetric Felton Jr. and Zach Charbonnet.
