Charles H. “Chuck” Moser (September 9, 1918(1918-09-09) – May 8, 1995(1995-05-08)) was an American football coach. He was known for guiding Abilene High School to a 49-game winning streak from 1954–57, which as still Texas state record for 4A and 5A schools (though tied by Southlake Carroll HS in 2004-07).[1] Moser also served as assistant to Emory Bellard at Texas A&M University.

Moser was an all-conference center on Don Faurot's Missouri Tigers team that went to the Sugar Bowl in 1939. He began his coaching career in Lexington, Missouri, but joined the Army Air Corps one year later. He became a navigator at Kelly Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas. After World War II, Moser coached at McAllen High School before succeeding P. E. Shotwell at Abilene in the spring of 1953. Moser retired from coaching in early 1960 at age 41, to serve as athletic director of Abilene schools. He returned to coaching as offensive backfield coach under Emory Bellard at Texas A&M.
