University of South Florida head men’s soccer coach Bob Butehorn announced in May of 2022 the hiring of William Chiles as an assistant coach. Chiles, who joins South Florida after a six-year stint as an assistant at George Mason University in Fairfax, Va., will be primarily responsible for the Bulls’ goalkeepers.
"We are pleased to announce that William Chiles will be joining our USF men’s soccer staff," said Butehorn. "He’s an outstanding coach and mentor that our players, specifically our goalkeepers, will enjoy working with."
"I would like to thank Coach Butehorn, Athletic Director Michael Kelly, and USF for this great opportunity," said Chiles. "I am looking forward to the upcoming season and working with the staff and student-athletes to continue the institution’s great academic and athletic success moving forward."
Before his time at George Mason, the Silver Spring, Md. native spent five seasons as a club coach for the Maryland United FC in Bowie, Md. Chiles began his coaching career as an assistant coach at his alma mater, Towson, from 2009-13 until the men’s soccer program was dissolved.
As a player at Towson, Chiles was an NSCAA Second Team All-American goalkeeper while also being named First Team All-Colonial Athletic Association and to the CAA All-Tournament Team. He was drafted by the Columbus Crew in the first round of the 2008 MLS Super Draft and played one season professionally with Crystal Baltimore of the USL Second Division.
Chiles graduated from Towson in 2008 with his bachelor’s degree in sports management. He received his master’s degree in sports administration from Canisius College in 2015.
