2025 Mizzou Women's Basketball Offseason Tracker: Who's In, Who's Out?

Every roster and staff change following the 2024-2025 women's college basketball season.

After suffering a first-round loss to Mississippi State in the SEC Tournament, Missouri women's basketball season ended early once again.

The loss officially marked the end of the 15 season tenure for former head coach Robin Pingeton. While she once had success within the program, bringing her team to the NCAA Tournament in four consecutive seasons, the days of competitive postseason play from Missouri were long gone.

The Tigers' last appearance in the big dance was in the 2019 season, in which they fell to Iowa in Round 2. Missouri hasn't secured a winning record in conference play since that same season, going hand-in-hand with its SEC Tournament record since the 2019-20 season, 1-5.

In search for the start of a new era, Missouri hired Kellie Harper as the new head coach of the program. Harper comes with 20 seasons of head coaching experience - five of those in the SEC - and eight NCAA Tournament appearances.

Harper will have opportunities to revamp her roster, given that four of the top nine Tigers in minutes logged will be out of eligibility, two of which started at least 29 games in the 2024-2025 season.

For now, leading scorer Grace Slaughter remains with the team, serving as a building block for a potential new-look Tigers squad.

Given that the current Missouri roster was initially recruited by Pingeton, there's no guarantee every player sticks around for Harper's regime.
