North Texas plays in Denton at DATCU Stadium, formerly Apogee Stadium, which opened in 2011 and seats 30,100. The Mean Green compete in the American Conference. The program's most famous alumnus is NFL Hall of Famer Joe Greene, the only All-American in North Texas football history, recruited in 1965. Greene went on to win four Super Bowls with the Pittsburgh Steelers. The stadium was the first newly built stadium to earn LEED Platinum certification.
