Bertram Earl "Mullie" Lenoir (January 19, 1897 – May 11, 1979) was an American college football player and coach. Lenoir was an All-Southern running back for the Alabama Crimson Tide of the University of Alabama, and coached both the Georgetown Tigers and Bluefield Rams.

Playing career

Lenoir was in the Alabama backfield with Riggs Stephenson, coached by Xen C. Scott. The 1919 team lost only to Vanderbilt and officially shares a title with Auburn. Auburn's only loss was also to Vandy, but the game was closer.
