He's the running back coach @ CAL who has produced seven straight 1000 yard rushers. And the only individual during that time that ran for over 1000 in two consecutive years is Marshawn Lynch, now with the Buffalo Bills. That means, Gould has coached six different running backs who have ran for over a 1000 yards in a season...
In 2005, Justin Forsett ran for 999 yards, Marshawn ran for over 1200 yards that season. One yard separated CAL from having two 1000 yard backs that season. Current Seahawk, Forsett ran for over 1500 yards his senior season in 2007.
Jahvid Best is near 1400 yards this year and since bowl games count, I hope he runs for over 100 yards in the Emerald Bowl against Miami, which will put him @ around 1500 yards for the season.
Great article in the Chron by Rusty Simmons on a running back coach who's in a class by himself...
