Richard Wackar (February 24, 1928 – August 15, 2016) was an American football and basketball coach. He served as the head football coach at Glassboro State College (now called Rowan University), an NCAA Division III program in Glassboro, New Jersey. He was the third all-time coach for the Profs and compiled a 65–84–4 record in 17 seasons.
