All prospects offered by Mizzou WBB coach Kellie Harper

Your comprehensive guide to the potential recruits for the Tigers

After two months on the job, Kellie Harper has officially settled into her new role as the head coach of Mizzou women’s hoops. After an aggressive push in the transfer portal it appears that Harper is done adding to the 2025 roster, which means she is now looking towards the future and is firmly on the recruiting trail.

As the time of publishing, 23 prospects have officially announced they have received an offer from Coach Harper & Co. Here is the full list and what you should know about these potential future Tigers.

(This list is organized based on year, region, then last name.)

2026

MIDWEST

Moriyah Douglass

Height: 6-4

Position: Wing/Forward

Location: St. Louis, MO

Leading off this list is Missouri native Moriyah Douglass, who has made a name for herself in the Show-Me State. She helped lead John Burroughs to a pair of 5A state championships as an underclassman.

Douglass has gained a good amount of national notoriety with Power 4 offers from schools like Maryland, Texas Tech and Arkansas in addition to Mizzou. Basketball greatness runs in Douglass’ blood, as her grandfather, Monroe Douglass, was an all-time great at SLU. In addition, her father, Monroe Douglass Jr., was a regional superstar at Chaminade and is now an assistant coach at his alma mater.

At 6-4 Douglass can play multiple positions, and that sort of height and versatility would easily translate to the SEC.

Asia Lee

Height: 5-10

Position: Point Guard

Location: Olathe, KS

Now we shift our attention to the Kansas City metro area, looking at point guard Asia Lee. As a junior Lee averaged 23.9 points on splits of 46/39/78 along with 3.9 rebounds and two steals. She finished with accolade after accolade, with standouts including a spot on the KSHSAA 1st Team All-State 6A, KSHSAA Top 10 All Classes, while becoming the all-time leading scorer in Olathe North High School history.

So it’s no surprise to see a heavy list of suitors including Arizona, Kansas State and kU (unfortunately). While not in-state, Lee would help Coach Harper establish a recruiting stronghold in the KC metro area.

Vienna Murray

Height: 6-1

Position: Guard/Wing

Location: Woodbury, MN

Minnesotans are known for being tall, and that’s no exception for 6-1 guard Vienna Murray. She was an all-state honorable mention as a junior while playing for East Ridge High School. Murray is a top prospect for schools aplenty, receiving offers from schools like Oregon, Oklahoma and Virginia Tech.

Murray is a 3-level scorer who can get to her spots with quickness and ease; all traits that would make her a perfect fit at the SEC level.

Londyn Parker

Height: 5-9

Position: Combo Guard

Location: Kansas City, MO

Heading back to the state of Missouri, Harper extended an offer to Londyn Parker. Out of Staley High School, Parker was voted to the Class 6 Final Four All Tournament Team by Prep Girls Hoops. She has quickly picked up steam on the recruiting trail, with offers from schools like Baylor, Oklahoma and West Virginia.

Parker’s skills primarily lie in her ability to get into the paint and create her own shot, while keeping teams honest with her passing; all traits that must have been extremely attracted to Harper.

SOUTHEAST

Natalya Hodge

Height: 5-7

Position: Combo Guard

Location: Knoxville, TN

Next up is Tennessee product Natalya Hodge, who was initially offered by Pingeton but re-offered under the new staff. Hodge has already had a successful career at Bearden High School, already surpassing 2,000 points at the end of her junior year. She was voted as the 2025 Knox News PrepXtra girls basketball player of the year and made the TSWA AAAA All-State team for the third consecutive season.

ESPN voted Hodge as a 4-star prospect with a 91 overall scouts grade. These accolades make it obvious why she has major national interest from schools like Ole Miss, Baylor and Florida State.

Hopefully Harper with her Tennessee ties can work to bring the ever-talented Hodge to Columbia.

Whitley Rogers

Height: 5-11

Position: Guard

Location: Little Rock, AR

Adding another guard to the list in the form of Whitley Rogers, who last season at Little Rock Christian Academy averaged 24.9 points, 6.9 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 2.5 steals. These athletic stats plus her academic prowess and community involvement led her to be named the Arkansas Gatorade Player of the Year for 2025.

Other major offers for Rogers includes West Virginia, Kentucky and Mississippi State. Only several hours away from Columbia, Whitley would be a perfect potential pickup for Harper to grow her ever-loving guard depth.

WEST

Peyton Jones

Height: 5-11

Position: Shooting Guard

Location: Highlands Ranch, CO

Going to my home state of Colorado, let’s take a look at guard Peyton Jones. As a junior at Valor Christian High School she averaged 23.9 points, routinely breaking the 30-point mark. She has been slowly rising up the class of 2026 rankings, bumping up to the #37 overall prospect in the class, so it’s no surprise she’s received major interest from schools like Colorado, Oklahoma State and Florida.

As a bigger guard Jones would be a perfect fit for the SEC and the perfect understudy to Grace Slaughter.

SOUTHWEST

Maddi Stewart

Height: 5-9

Position: Combo Guard

Location: Tulsa, OK

Another prospect, another border state box checked for Coach Harper thanks to Maddi Stewart from Oklahoma. Stewart was the 4A MVP after leading Lincoln Christian to a state championship thanks to 37 points and 23(!) rebounds.

Mizzou was a late addition to Stewart’s top four, joining Oklahoma State, Nebraska and Oklahoma. She will be visiting Columbia on the 16th of this month.

NORTHEAST

Mimi Thiero

Height: 6-5

Position: Forward/Wing

Location: Leetsdale, PA

Looking back to the forwards with a big addition to the list in the form of 6-5 forward Oumou “Mimi” Thiero. The junior has garnered plenty of national attention, ranked as the No. 27 overall prospect in the ESPN top 60 for 2026. Thiero plays at Quaker Valley, which is where her brother and NBA draft prospect, Adou, made a name for himself.

Thiero has a laundry list of offers from all over the country, including rising programs like Vanderbilt, NC State and Kentucky. The combination of size and skill as a two-way threat makes Thiero a perfect candidate for the SEC, and would help Harper establish Mizzou as a team with a real paint presence.

2027

MIDWEST

Brinley Altenburg

Height: 5-10

Position: Combo Guard

Location: Sioux Falls, SD

Heading north let’s break down Brinley Altenburg, playing for Sioux Falls Jefferson High School. She finished her sophomore year by earning Class AA 1st Team All-State honors. Altenburg was rated by Prep Girls Hoops as the top prospect in South Dakota for the class of 2027.

She has plenty of Power 4 offers from schools like Oklahoma, Michigan State and Minnesota. A big fish in a small pond, Altenburg is no stranger to being on top and has that winning edge.

Destiny Manyawu

Height: 6-3

Position: Forward

Location: Kansas City, MO

Back to the state of Missouri, specifically Destiny Manyawu from KC. Manyawu was voted to the 2024-25 Class 6 Girls All-State MSHSAA team at Staley High School, one of only two sophomores on the team. In addition she was voted to the Missouri All-Defensive Team by RecruitLook Hoops Girls.

Earlier this month Manyawu was voted to the ESPN Super 60 prospects in 2027, voted as the No. 50 overall player in the class. This has drawn plenty of offers from schools like Colorado, Oklahoma State and Cal.

Dasia Scott

Height: 6-2

Position: Forward

Location: St. Louis, MO

Another top prospect from Missouri offered by Mizzou is Dasia Scott. As a sophomore at Principia, Scott collected a laundry list of awards including MSHSAA Class 3 All-State, All-District Player of the Year and Metro Conference Player of the Year. In addition she is part of the Under Armour Future 60 roster for 2025.

Scott’s pinned tweet is currently her Mizzou offer (seen above), but has posted about several others recently such as DePaul, Georgia and Arkansas.

Mya Wilson

Height: 6-1

Position: Combo Guard

Location: Maplewood, MN

Rounding out the class of 2027 offers is Mya Wilson, a 6-1 combo guard. Wilson is quickly blossoming into one of the best players in the state of Minnesota, routinely dropping 25+ points while playing for Hill-Murray School.

She was voted as the top player in the class of 2027 in Minnesota according to Jr-All Star. Since the beginning of May she has received offers from not only Mizzou but Wisconsin, Marquette and Arizona.

SOUTHEAST

Kie’Aundria Acree

Height: 6-1

Position: Wing

Location: Albany, GA

Leading off the class of 2027 is wing Kie’Aundria “KJ” Acree. At Monroe High School, Acree stuffed the stat sheet after averaging 31.1 points, 15 rebounds, 5 assists, 4 rebounds and 3.7 blocks! It came as no surprise that Acree has been named as the back-to-back Region 1 AAA Player of the Year along with the regional Defensive Player of the Year.

She has received high praise on 247 Sports, voted as the highest ranked player in the state of Georgia in the Class of 2027 and as a consensus Top 10 shooting guard. Her talent lies primarily as an off-ball player, with the length to play the 2 or 3 collegiately. Other offers for Acree includes Tennessee, Alabama and South Carolina.

Madeline Mignery

Height: 6-1

Position: Forward

Location: Lakewood Ranch, FL

Heading to the Sunshine State where Madeline Mignery caught Harper’s attention. Mignery already has a winning pedigree as a sophomore, winning the 3A state championship as a member of Cardinal Mooney High School. She was an integral part of the run, voted as a member of the Small School First Team All-Tournament by Prep Girls Hoops.

Her pedigree expands beyond high school, named as one of 22 finalists for the 2025 USA Women’s U16 National Team. As you can see Mignery’s talents have not gone unnoticed, bringing in a laundry list of offers including current top and historic teams like TCU, Iowa State and Stanford.

Ginny Anne Dumont

Height: 5-11

Position: Point Guard

Location: Providence, NC

The tall point guard Ginny Anne Dumont is the next prospect on the list. Dumont made noise playing for Providence Day School, voted as the No. 2 prospect in North Carolina and No. 32 in the entire nation according to 247 Sports.

She has very few offers thus far, but her 4.3 GPA has made her attractive to academic schools like Harvard, Penn and Yale. She has the potential to be an elite passer with the ability to develop an outside shot that can make Dumont the steal of the class.

Finley Parker

Height: 6-3

Position: Forward

Location: Woodstock, GA

Another top forward prospect in 2027 that caught Harper’s attention was Finley Parker. As a member of Riverdale Ridge High School, Parker was integral to winning the GHSA 5A state championship this past spring. She has a laundry list of accomplishments, most notably as a Naismith All-American Underclassmen Honorable Mention.

Parker was voted as a 4-star prospect by 247, No. 2 in the state of Georgia and No. 26 on the national scene. In addition to Mizzou she has received big-time offers from regional schools such as Georgia Tech, Clemson and Wake Forest.

Marley Spiers

Height: 6-4

Position: Forward

Location: Clarksville, TN

If I know anything about Kellie Harper, it’s that she loves her Tennessee prospects; this includes 6-4 forward Marley Spiers. Playing for Clarksville Christian School, Spiers was an integral part of the team 4-peating as NACA D3 National Champions.

She has a scout rating of 93 on ESPN as a four-star prospect. Recently in their Top 60 ESPN had Spiers ranked as the No. 48 overall prospect in the class of 2027. Other recent offers include Rutgers, Michigan and Seton Hall.

SOUTHWEST

A’Zyua Blair

Height: 5-6

Position: Point Guard

Location: Pearland, TX

The shortest player on this list thus far is true point guard A’Zuya Blair. An underrated prospect, Blair was voted the to the 6A All-State Girls Basketball Team and TABC All Region Team as a sophomore at Pearland High School in Texas.

Back in March she was voted as the No. 4 player in Texas for the class of 2027. Mizzou is one of the highlight offers for Blair with local schools like Houston, Texas A&M and SMU.

2028

MIDWEST

Khloe Nicholson

Height: 6-2

Position: Combo Guard

Location: Quincy, IL

One player who is already familiar with Columbia is Khloe Nicholson, who plays club for the Columbia MO Phenom. Nicholson played her freshman year at Quincy Senior High School last season, finishing with 20+ points across several games last year.

According to ESPN Nicholson is a 4-star prospect, ranked with a 92 Scout Grade on ESPN. It makes sense that she ranked right behind Bacon as the No. 25 player in ESPN’s debut Class of 2028 rankings. Recently she has received offers from TCU, Mississippi State and Illinois.

SOUTHEAST

Makynli Bacon

Height: 6-0

Position: Wing

Location: Murfreesboro, TN

Leading off the class of 2028 offers is wing Makynli Bacon. It was a big freshman season at Bacon at The Webb School, helping lead her team to a state championship while being named to the All-State Tournament team. In addition she was voted to the 2025 MaxPreps Freshman All-American Team.

Bacon was ranked as the No. 24 overall player according to the first ESPN ranking for the class of 2028. She has already received a large amount of SEC offers including Mississippi State, Florida and Georgia. She’s considered one of the best in the state, primarily due to her talents as an isolation scorer and a defensive presence around the rim.

Morghan Reckley

Height: 5-7

Position: Point Guard

Location: Fayetteville, GA

Point guard Morghan Reckley is the most recent prospect to receive an offer from Coach Harper. At Sandy Creek High School she took home several end-of-year awards, including GHSA 3A Freshman of the Year along with a spot on the First Team All-State.

She also has a high end scout grade of 93 and is ranked as the No. 16 player in the 2028 ESPN class ranking we discussed earlier. Reckley’s offers have picked up quickly, receiving invites from Indiana, Virginia Tech, Maryland, Mizzou and Pitt all since June 3.

Ella Watts

Height: 6-1

Position: Forward

Location: Huntsville, AL

Rounding out this list is forward and Alabama native Ella Watts. Attending Bob Jones High School, Watts became an instrumental part of the team in her freshman year. While Watts already possesses SEC size, her true talent lies as an outside shooter.

As a result she has piqued the interest of schools such as Texas Tech, TCU and Arkansas.

The full list to stay up-to-date with prospects offered and decisions can be found through this Twitter list (we don’t call it X here). With the elimination of NLI and the continuing impact of the transfer portal, it may take a little longer to see some commitments come in. But with Mizzou’s current extra roster spots and Harper’s newfound recruiting drive, I’d expect to see several of these prospects committing to Mizzou come this fall.
