Philemon M. Utley (October 23, 1889 – June 16, 1950) was an American football, basketball, baseball, and track coach.[1] He served as the head football coach at Carson–Newman University in 1913 and Lenoir–Rhyne University in 1921, compiling a career college football coaching record of 9–5. He coached the Wake Forest University men's basketball team in 1922–23 and the Demon Deacons baseball team in 1923.[2][3] Utley also coached track at Wake Forest and served as the school athletic director in 1922–23.

A native of Raleigh, North Carolina, Utley attended Wake Forest from 1909 to 1913, where he played football as a quarterback and end, basketball as a guard, and baseball as a first baseman. He was also a hurdler and shot putter in track. Utley died unexpectedly on June 16, 1950, in Los Angeles, California.[4]
