Joseph Susan (born September 18, 1955) is an American college football coach and former player. He is the special assistant to the head football coach at Rutgers University, a position he has held since 200. He was previously the head football coach for the Bucknell Bison of the Patriot League. Susan's second coaching stint at Bucknell (he was an assistant from 1981 to 1990) came on the heels of a nine-year tenure as the Rutgers Scarlet Knights offensive line and tight ends coach under Greg Schiano. He has been a head coach at one other school—Davidson College, where he led the Wildcats to the program's only perfect season in 2000. Susan stayed at Davidson for just that season.
