Steven E. "Steve" Goldman (born 1945) is an American financial advisor and former gridiron football coach. He is a Senior Vice President and Financial Advisor with UBS. From 1989 to 1991 he was head coach of the Ottawa Rough Riders of the Canadian Football League.
Goldman was born on February 8, 1945 in Brooklyn. He played Tight end for the Colorado State Rams football team.
In 1966, Goldman began his coaching career as a graduate assistant under Bill Peterson at Florida State. While there, he also earned his Master of Science degree. In 1968, he became the backs and receivers coach at Clearwater High School. At Clearwater, Goldman and head coach Earle Brown installed a pro-set offense. In 1969, Clearwater wide receiver Joel Parker was named a Parade All-American and Class 2A all-state player. In 1971, Bill Peterson became head coach of the Rice Owls football team and Goldman joined him as an assistant. After one season as freshman coach, Goldman joined the varsity team as offensive backfield coach. In 1974, he became the Owls' offensive coordinator. In 1975, Goldman was hired by Louisville Cardinals Vince Gibson. Gibson wanted to run a pass-heavy offense and respected Goldman's knowledge of the passing game.
In 1980, Goldman moved to the Canadian Football League. He was the offensive backfield coach for the Toronto Argonauts from 1980 to 1981, Hamilton Tiger-Cats from 1982 to 1983, Edmonton Eskimos from 1984 to 1987, and offensive coordinator for the Saskatchewan Roughriders in 1988.
