The Robin Report 2024

The Pingeton era is finally over. Mizzou was up 7 at half but is outscored by 27 in the second half and lose to Mississippi State 75-55.

Pingeton went to 4 NCAA tournaments during her time at Mizzou, all Sophie Cunningham years. The furthest Mizzou got was round of 32. Unbelievable Mizzou let this go on for so long.

Rumor has it Molly Miller to Mizzou is already a done deal.

I think I said it on this thread and I know I have on another thread, her only “good” years were when Cunningham was there. But they never made it far because they were outcoached.
 
Who else is out there besides Miller?
Kellie Harper. Former MO St and TN women's coach. Two tourneys and a sweet 16 at MO St. Made the tourney all 4 years including 2 more sweet 16s at TN but that wasn't good enough for them. I think Mizzou would take that in a heartbeat.

Here's a good list of possible upgrades.

Up 14 early in the 3rd period and let a 30-0 run happen

I hope you are right about Molly Miller. Fire me up if that happens!
 
I’d rather have Miller, I think there’s more potential there.
I would say at TN, Harper had much more high profile recruits than she had at Mo State and for the talent she had, didn’t do as well as she should have.
And just to be clear, I think Harper is a fantastic coach. I just think Miller would be a breath of fresh air and someone who would potentially stay at Mizzou for awhile if she does well.
 
If they get either Miller or Harper they are in a great spot and have a way better coach than they have had. I am also hoping for Miller, but they are in a good spot unless they do something stupid.
 
Final coaching record at Mizzou(according to Wikipedia)

250-218 (53.4%) overall

Conference record: 94-148 (38.8%)

I’d have to break down year by year for record against power opponents.
 
Mizzou being cheap

Imagine a Big 12 school outbidding an SEC school


My initial thoughts were….

Mizzou: won’t pony up close to what she’s being offered elsewhere

Arkansas: $$$$$$$$

Arizona State: she already lives there so less of a hassle with not having to move, and though it’s can get really hot there, relatively nice weather year round.

My god. We’re going to end up hiring Harper. Who was fired from a better SEC program with better resources and better players, for underperforming.
Agree with Chaotic. If Harper couldn’t succeed at Tennessee, yes they have much higher standards than Mizzou, she won’t succeed at Mizzou. She kind of got lucky at Mo State and got the 1 Cinderella run in the NCAA. She has been living off of that since then. If Mizzou can’t or won’t spend enough $ to get Miller get UNLV’s head coach

Get Mo State’s HC. She’s a good one.

I thought she went twice to the sweet 16?
She wouldn’t be the worst hire. Keep in mind expectations at Mizzou will not be Tennessee expectations. If Mizzou had been to the sweet 16 recently we wouldn’t be looking for a coach. Harper was fired because she only reached the sweet 16.

I think Harper is a great coach, but she has already failed at this level at Tennessee recently. Yes, I know she had 4 solid seasons there, but it’s Tennessee Lady Vols, same concept as if DeBoer got bounced in in the CFP first round 3 years in a row, bye bye from Bama)

She wouldn’t have near the support, the budget, and the blue chips that just come walking through the door like she did at Tennessee, but she’d be coaching against the same high level of competition. plus, Mizzou would be a stepping stone for her just like Mo State was.
