Greene is considered to be one of the best defensive linemen to ever play at UNT. he played football for the college from 1966 until 1968. The Pittsburgh Steelers then selected Greene with the fourth overall pick in the 1969 NFL draft.

The UNT Board of Regents will discuss the proposal during their regular scheduled meeting on Thursday and Friday.
