Billy Morgan (born 2 February 1945) is a retired Irish Gaelic football manager and former player. He played football with his local club Nemo Rangers and with the Cork senior inter-county team from 1966 until 1981. Morgan is regarded as one of Cork's greatest-ever players.

Morgan's status as one of Cork's all-time greats is self-evident. In a senior inter-county career that lasted for fifteen years he won one All-Ireland title, five Munster titles, one National Football League title and five Railway Cup titles. Morgan has also been the recipient of many awards and honours off the field. In 1973 his goalkeeping prowess earned him the prestigious Texaco Footballer of the Year award, thus becoming the first goalkeeper to win the title.

Morgan is regarded by many as the soul of Cork football due to his passion as a player and as a manager for his countys football team. Of Cork's six All-Ireland titles he has been involved as either a player or as a manager for three of them. Morgan first took charge of Cork for the 1981 championship, however, it was in his second term that he guided Cork to two All-Ireland titles in 1989 and 1990.
