Richard Stubler (born August 31, 1949) is the current head coach of the Toronto Argonauts of the Canadian Football League.

After graduating from the University of Northern Colorado, Stubler began his coaching career in 1971 at Roaring Fork High School in Carbondale, Colorado. After winning 30 games and a state championship in three seasons, he moved on in 1974 to be the freshmen coach for the University of Colorado at Boulder team.[1]

Stubler was then the New Mexico State Aggies' secondary coach from 1975 to 1977. After that, he spent one season with the Mustangs of Southern Methodist University. Stubler was a member of the Colorado State Rams coaching staff from 1979-82.[2]

Rich Stubler began his CFL coaching career in 1983 when he joined the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, helping lead the team to a Grey Cup in 1986 as linebackers coach. In 1990, Stubler was the defensive coordinator for the Toronto Argonauts. He joined the Edmonton Eskimos’ coaching staff in 1991, winning his second league championship in 1993. In 1994 he moved south to serve as defensive coordinator under Mike Bellotti at the University of Oregon. He rejoined the Edmonton Eskimos from 1998 to 1999 before moving on to help the B.C. Lions capture the Grey Cup in 2000. [2]

Stubler coached in the Arena Football League as the defensive coordinator for the expansion Detroit Fury from 2001 to 2002.[2] Upon the conclusion of both AFL seasons, Stubler rejoined the Toronto Argonauts late into their seasons as a defensive consultant.

In 2003 Stubler joined the Argonauts full-time as their defensive coordinator. In 2004, the Argonauts defeated the British Columbia Lions 27-19 in the 92nd Grey Cup to give Stubler his fourth championship.[2] On December 6, 2007, he was announced to replace the outgoing Pinball Clemons as head coach of the Argonauts for 2008.
