Phillip James Butterfield Jr. (November 30, 1927 – November 26, 2002) was an American college football coach. He served as the head football coach at Ithaca College from 1967 to 1993.

His teams finished as the runner-up in the Stagg Bowl four times. His total playoff record was 21–8.

After his retirement, Ithaca renamed their football stadium in his honor. Butterfield was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame as a coach in 1997. He died of complications from Alzheimer's disease in 2002 in Ithaca, New York.[1]
