† 2021 Big 12 Tournament winner As of March 28, 2021 Rankings from AP poll |
Prior to the season Marlene Stollings was fired after two years as head coach. USA Today revealed in a story published on August 5, 2020, that 12 players left Texas Tech since Stollings became head coach in 2018 over accusations that Stollings and her staff were verbally abusive and subject players to dangerous forms of conditioning, for instance a requirement for players to have a 90 percent heart rate in practice and games.[1] The day after that story was published, Texas Tech fired Stollings for cause.[2][3] Shortly after her firing, Krista Gerlich was hired as the new head coach.[4]
They finished the season 10–15, 5–13 in Big 12 play to finish in seventh place. In the Big 12 Tournament, they lost to Kansas State in the First Round. They were not invited to the NCAA tournament or the WNIT.
