The 2023–24 Miami Hurricanes women's basketball team represented the University of Miami during the 2023–24 NCAA Division I women's basketball season. The Hurricanes were led by nineteenth-year head coach Katie Meier and played their home games at the Watsco Center as members of the Atlantic Coast Conference.
The Hurricanes started the season with eight straight wins. During the win streak, they won their early season tournament, the Miami Thanksgiving Tournament, and defeated a ranked Mississippi State team on the road in the ACC–SEC Challenge. Miami was ranked 24th for their match up with number 10 Baylor, but they lost 57–75. That would be Miami's only loss of their non-conference schedule as they finished 10–1. The team could not carry their momentum from non-conference play into the ACC schedule as they lost four of their first five games. They followed that with a win over number 4 NC State. They would go on from there to win four of their next six games, including an overtime victory over Clemson. The Hurricanes then went on a three game losing streak before winning two of their last three games. Their one loss in that stretch was in overtime to Georgia Tech.
The Hurricanes finished the season 19–12 overall and 8–10 in ACC play to finish in ninth place. As the ninth seed in the ACC tournament, they defeated eighth seed North Carolina in the Second Round before losing to first seeded Virginia Tech in the Quarterfinals. On Selection Sunday, the Hurricanes were not picked to be a part of the field for the 2024 NCAA Tournament, and were left out by the selection committee. The team declined an invite to the inaugural WBIT, ending their season.[1]
On March 22, 2024, Meier announced her retirement from coaching.[2]

They finished the season 22–13 overall and 11–7 in ACC play to finish in a tie for sixth place. As the sixth seed in the ACC tournament, they defeated eleventh seed Boston College in the Second Round before losing to third seeded Virginia Tech in the Quarterfinals. They received an at-large bid to the NCAA tournament where they were the ninth seed in the Greenville 2 Regional. They defeated eighth seed Oklahoma State in the First Round, first seed Indiana in the Second Round, and fourth seed Villanova in the Sweet Sixteen before losing to eventual champions third seed LSU in the Elite Eight to end their season. The Elite Eight appearance was the first in program history.[3]
