The North Texas Mean Green football program is the intercollegiate team that represents the University of North Texas in the sport of American football. The Mean Green compete in the Football Bowl Subdivision of the National Collegiate Athletic Association and the West Division of Conference USA, they are coached by Seth Littrell, who has served in that position since 2016. North Texas has produced 24 conference championship titles, with eight postseason bowl appearances and four appearances in the former I-AA Playoffs; the Mean Green play their home games at the Apogee Stadium which has a seating capacity of 30,850. Before becoming a fully-fledged state-recognized institution, the University of North Texas fielded its first football team in 1913. Under the direction of Professor J. W. Pender, the band of teachers-in-training played one game against TCU, a 13–0 loss at Eagle Field; the next year saw North Texas assemble its first full schedule, with three home and three away games, against schools such as TCU and Sam Houston State.

The Eagles picked up their first win in school history on the road against now-defunct Burleson College, a 25–0 shutout. They'd pick up their first home win a week beating the University of Dallas 13–2. After Pender left the university in 1915, basketball coach James W. St. Clair took over the football program, coaching both teams and leading North Texas to a 20–11–2 record in his five years. St. Clair's final season saw the Eagles pick up their first win over a future major college program, beating TCU 14–6 in Fort Worth to open the 1919 campaign; as the university itself worked its way towards full recognition by the Texas State Legislature in 1921, the school began making moves to improve its young football program. The university hired Theron J. Fouts in 1920, joined the Texas Intercollegiate Athletic Association in 1922; the jump in prestige allowed the school to schedule games against some of the conferences former members, including SMU and Baylor, who had moved from the TIAA to the Southwest Conference just a few years prior.

The Eagles' first year in the TIAA saw them open up the season with a 55-0 loss to Baylor in Denton marked the first game in the history of the Safeway Bowl with rival SMU, with North Texas falling to the Mustangs 66–0. The next few seasons saw average performances on the field. In 1929, the university hired Jack Sisco to coach the program. Sisco lead the team through some of its first years as a consistently-winning college football unit; the program won its first conference title in 1931 as members of the TIAA. In 1932, North Texas became a charter member of the new Lone Star Conference, compiling an 8–1–1 record, winning eight straight games after a 0–1–1 start, six of them via a shutout while allowing just 12 points against in that span. Sisco's tenure continued with conference championships in 1935, 1936, a three-peat from 1939–-1941. Sisco was replaced by Lloyd Russell in 1942, who would only spend one season at the helm before the school temporarily disbanded its football program from 1943–1945 as many students went off to fight in World War II.

The revival of the program after the war turned out to be one of the most successful stretches in school history. North Texas hired Odus Mitchell from Houston-area Marshall High School to lead the team. In his first season, the Eagles went 7–3–1, winning the Lone Star Conference Championship and earning a bid to the team's first bowl game and victory, a 14–13 win over Pacific in the 1946 Optimist Bowl; the year was the first of seven consecutive winning seasons. In his 21 years as head coach, Mitchell compiled 122 wins, 10 conference titles, all of which still stand as school records for a single coach. Mitchell coached North Texas to their first AP Ranking in school history, oversaw the transition from Eagle Field to Fouts Field in 1952, he recruited Abner Haynes and Leon King to North Texas in 1956, where the pair broke the color barrier for college football in the state of Texas the next season. His second to last recruiting class in 1965 included future NFL Hall of Famer Joe Greene, who went on to become the only All-American in North Texas football history, a four-time Super Bowl champion with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

After Mitchell left in early 1967, North Texas had just one conference title and three winning seasons over the next six years. In 1973, the Mean Green hired future Hall of Fame coach Hayden Fry, controversially fired by rival SMU the previous season after leading the Mustangs one game shy of a Southwest Conference title. Fry's Mean Green unit won the Missouri Valley Conference in his first year despite putting up a 5–5–1 season. After a lackluster 2-7-2 finish in 1974, dissatisfied with the lack of support from students and fans, began putting together a plan with university officials to move the program to the Southwest Conference. At the time, the SWC was one of the most prominent football conferences in college football, besides Arkansas, all of its schools were based in Texas, with fellow metroplex schools TCU and SMU making up two of them. Fry felt distancing the program from a lower-tier conference was a good first step, so the team became a Division I-A Independent before the start of the 1975 season.

His plan included moving some home games into a more prominent venue than tiny Fouts Field could hold, so Fry began scheduling two home games per year at Texas Stadium in nearby Irving the home of the NFL's Dallas Cowboys and metroplex rival SMU. Fry gave the schoo

Anthony, Duke of Brabant known as Antoine de Brabant, Antoine de Bourgogne and Anthony of Burgundy, was Count of Rethel, Duke of Brabant and Limburg, Co-Duke of Luxemburg. Anthony was the son of Philip II, Duke of Burgundy, Margaret III, Countess of Flanders, brother of John the Fearless; when his grandaunt Joanna died childless in 1406, Anthony inherited the Duchy of Brabant and Limburg, thus becoming the first Brabantian ruler of the House of Valois. The Duke of Brabant arrived late to the Battle of Agincourt, in his eagerness to reach the field, he dressed in improvised armour and wore a surcoat made from a trumpeter's flag, he was captured by some English archers. He was executed along with the rest of the prisoners ordered by Henry V of England, the English being unaware of his high status and ransom value; the execution was carried out as the much smaller English force found itself stretched to its limits, guarding prisoners with the battle still not won. A counterattack on the King's baggage train is thought to have driven King Henry to the decision, thinking he was being attacked from the rear and some chroniclers have given Brabant's belated charge as this cause, adding to the Duke's chivalric but tragic final story.

Subsequently the executions stopped when the attack was seen to falter. He married at Arras on 21 February 1402 Jeanne de St. Pol, daughter of Waleran III of Luxembourg, Count of Ligny and Saint-Pol, they had two children: John IV, Duke of Brabant Philip of St. Pol, Duke of BrabantHe married again at Brussels, on 16 July 1409, Elisabeth of Görlitz, duchess of Luxembourg, daughter of John, Duke of Görlitz, they had two children: William unknown He had two illegitimate daughters.
