UC Davis parts ways with former Santa Rita DB Ron Gould

Former Santa Rita High School defensive back Ron Gould was fired last week after four years as head football coach at UC Davis. The Aggies went 12-33 during Gould’s four seasons. They went 5-7 overall and 5-3 in the Big Sky Conference in his first season, then tailed off to 2-9, 2-9 and 3-8. Gould, 51, is due to make a base salary of $235,000 in 2017. It wouldn’t be much of a surprise if Gould winds up on Jeff Tedford’s new staff at Fresno State; Gould worked under Tedford for eight years at Cal.
