The 2023–24 North Texas Mean Green women's basketball team represents the University of North Texas during the 2023–24 NCAA Division I women's basketball season. The Mean Green, led by first-year head coach Jason Burton, play their home games at the UNT Coliseum in Denton, Texas as first year members of the American Athletic Conference.

Previous season

The Mean Green finished the 2022–23 season 11–20, 8–12 in C-USA play to finish in seventh place.[1] As the #7 seed in the C-USA tournament, they were upset by #10 seed UAB in the first round.[2] This was the Mean Green's final season as members of Conference USA, as they moved to the American Athletic Conference effective July 1, 2023.[3]

On March 20, 2023, it was announced that head coach Jalie Mitchell would be leaving the program after eight seasons at the helm.[4] A week later, on March 27, the school hired Texas A&M–Commerce head coach Jason Burton as the Mean Green's new head coach.[5]
