Reed leaves the Tigers after a six-season stint in which she led the team to a 125-54 overall record, including a 95-10 record in conference play.

In the last five seasons, Jackson State finished with an 83-4 conference record, posting undefeated marks in two of the last three seasons and winning the conference tournament in three of the past four seasons.
She also coached two players who went on to be selected in the WNBA Draft (Ameshya Williams-Holliday in 2022 and Angel Jackson in 2024).
Shortly after her contract expired at the end of the 2024 season, Jackson State reportedly was preparing to extend Reed an offer to stay.
