    Michigan fires coach Sherrone Moore due to inappropriate relationship

    Michigan fired football coach Sherrone Moore for cause Wednesday, citing an inappropriate relationship with a staff member.

    “Following a university investigation, credible evidence was found that Coach Moore engaged in an inappropriate relationship with a staff member,” athletic director Warde Manuel said in a statement. “This conduct constitutes a clear violation of University policy, and U-M maintains zero tolerance for such behavior.”

    Moore just completed his second season as head coach after serving as an assistant coach on Jim Harbaugh’s staff from 2018-2023. The Wolverines were 17-8 during his tenure, including a 9-3 finish this season.

    Moore was suspended two games earlier this season for deleting text messages he exchanged with Connor Stalions, the central figure in the NCAA’s sign-stealing investigation. Biff Poggi filled in for Moore during his suspension and will be Michigan’s coach in the Citrus Bowl against Texas on Dec. 31.

    A source briefed on the decision said the school received an anonymous tip regarding the inappropriate relationship, prompting the investigation. Moore was fired two days after meeting with reporters to discuss Michigan’s 2026 signing class and the bowl matchup against Texas. The investigation initially did not produce evidence of the relationship, the source said, but additional evidence came to light in the last 24 hours that led to Moore’s dismissal.

    According to a team source, most of Michigan’s staff found out the news when Ward broke it to the team during a meeting. Sherrone was in the building Wednesday but was not at that team meeting, according to the source.

    “I think we’ve got a really good foundation of where we need to be, but we’ve got a lot to work on,” Moore said.

            Why was he arrested? Was he messing with someone under age? How is a relationship with another consenting adult employee a criminal offense?

                Can you imagine being told by Michigan "You're fired" and hours later get jammed up in prison for a day or two?

                  Saw this comment for an article:

                  I'm betting that Mrs. Moore will soon be entering the Transfer Portal.

                            ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Former Michigan coach Sherrone Moore was arraigned Friday on charges of third-degree home invasion, stalking and breaking and entering, stemming from an alleged incident Wednesday involving a female Michigan football staffer.

                            Moore’s bond was set at $25,000 and a probable cause conference was set for Jan. 22, 2026. Moore must be tethered to a GPS as part of his bond condition and continue mental health treatment.

                            The home invasion charge is a felony, while the stalking and breaking and entering charges are misdemeanors.

                            Moore was arraigned Friday in Washtenaw County 14A District Court and appeared via video feed wearing a white jumpsuit. He was released from jail Friday afternoon, a Washtenaw County jail official told The Athletic.

                            Michigan fired Moore for cause Wednesday for engaging in an inappropriate relationship with the female staffer. At Wednesday’s arraignment, prosecutor Kati Rezmierski said Moore and the female staffer “had an intimate relationship for a number of years.”

                            After the woman broke off the relationship Monday, Rezmierski said, Moore made numerous phone calls and sent numerous text messages that she did not want. The woman then disclosed the relationship to Michigan, which had been investigating the relationship through an outside law firm, Jenner & Block.

                            At 4:10 p.m. on Wednesday, police were called to the listed address of the female Michigan football staffer, according to police dispatch. Police also sent officers to the listed address of Moore and Schembechler Hall, Michigan’s practice facility, according to the police dispatch.

                            In a news release, the Pittsfield Township Police Department said Moore went to the woman’s residence unarmed and entered through an unlocked door without permission. In the course of a verbal argument, Moore “picked up two butter knives and a pair of scissors from within the residence and threatened to harm himself,” police said.

                            Rezmierski told the judge that Moore made a series of threatening statements to the woman, including, “I’m going to kill myself. I’m going to make you watch. My blood is on your hands. You ruined my life.” Moore then left the residence, police said.

                            At 4:53 p.m., officers said Moore’s wife told them he was in an “unknown parking lot,” according to police dispatch. She later informed police that Moore’s phone had pinged at Well Church in Saline, a city about 10 miles southwest of Ann Arbor. At 5:16 p.m., he was detained at the church as part of an alleged assault investigation, according to Pittsfield Township police.

                            Moore was transported to a hospital for evaluation before being taken to the Washtenaw County jail, the police department said.

                            Moore, 39, is represented by Ann Arbor attorney Joseph Simon, who told reporters after the arraignment that he had not seen a police report and declined to comment on Moore’s mental state.

                            The charges could result in up to six years of jail time.

                            In an email to University of Michigan students and faculty on Thursday, Michigan president Domenico Grasso touted the school’s quick action in firing Moore for violating university policy and pledged that the investigation into Moore’s behavior would continue. Grasso encouraged anyone with information about the matter to send a confidential email to a law firm. “All of the facts here must be known,” he wrote.

                            Grasso’s email echoed a statement from athletic director Warde Manuel on Wednesday: “This conduct constitutes a clear violation of University policy, and U-M maintains zero tolerance for such behavior.”

                            Moore previously served as an assistant coach on Jim Harbaugh’s staff from 2018 to 2023. The Wolverines were 17-8 during his tenure, including a 9-3 finish this season. Associate head coach Biff Poggi will be Michigan’s interim head coach for the Citrus Bowl against Texas on Dec. 31.

And how the **** is “I’m going to kill myself, my blood is on your hands threatening statements to the woman? Isn’t that threatening hisself? So now, we’re going to charge people that are suicidal, criminally?

                                      I'd say the part right in the middle of all that which you left out is why he got the threatening statements charge.

                                        He said his mistress ruined his life for spilling the beans. Look in the mirror sir, you ruined your own life. The epidemic of victimhood and lack of personal accountability is alive and well.

                                          Maybe you can help me. What statements did he say that was threatening to the woman? Those statements sounded like he was threatening to kill himself? I’m not trying to protect a scumbag but legally, I don’t see how this holds up unless there’s more. Most courts do not get in the business of charging people that are suicidal.

                                              Yeah, that’s what I’m trying to figure out too. From what I’ve seen, it sounds more like he was talking about harming himself, not threatening her. Not defending him at all, just feels like there has to be more context for this to really hold up legally.

I’m not trying to protect a scumbag but legally, I don’t see how this holds up unless there’s more. Most courts do not get in the business of charging people that are suicidal.
                                                The "I am going to make you watch" bit, I'm guessing.

                                                  I heard she filed a restraining order.
                                                  That's the first time I'm hearing that. I don't have all the facts.
                                                  I read a gazillion stories a day, and sometimes it's difficult to separate the truth from hyperbole and fiction.

                                                  The only ones who'll make out like fat cats here are the defense attorneys, the prosecuting attorneys, and the court system, who will benefit from the fees involved.

                                                    I still can't get over how long Michigan knew about the work place affair. I think that's what a lot of people are just looking past. Michigan wanted to find away to fire him for his coaching. I think that's great. It's just a carry over from Harbaugh. So much BS comes with it.

                                                          Maybe they use him saying “I’m going to make you watch” as kidnapping. Idk, but it seems weird that he never actually said he was going to hurt her. I assumed he went over there and said, “I’m going to kill you bitch”, but I kept reading and never saw that.

                                                            They fire for cause, so they don’t have to pay him. If he had beat OSU, he’d probably still have a job.

                                                              The staffer told police that by the time she made it to the front door, Moore had allegedly entered her home without permission and refused to leave.

                                                              Moore then allegedly grabbed two knives and started to approach the staffer, while saying, "You ruined my life. You ruined my life."


                                                              He entered her house because the door was open. He’s probably gone to her house all the time to have sex. But you charge him with breaking and entering? He didn’t break anything, the door was open. She filed a complaint with UM, not the police the day she was fired. She then calls her lawyer when Moore was there and the lawyer called the police. Moore left before the police got there. So who witnessed him threatening to kill himself? Only the girl? How can you arrest Moore later on away from the scene? What law did he break? He walked into her open home, said whatever he said and left. Did she record him trying to kill himself? Any witnesses? Did the police just accept her story? Smells very fishy. Anything else come out?

                                                                I get why it feels questionable, but police don’t need video or witnesses to act. If someone enters a home without permission and refuses to leave, that can still be illegal, even if the door was open. The knife allegation is the serious part and changes everything. Arrests based on statements after the fact happen all the time. We don’t know all the details yet, but it’s not as simple as nothing happened just because he left before police arrived.

Do you really need permission to enter an open door of your girlfriend/side piece? Who said he refused to leave? Her? Who said he had a knife to his throat? Her? Who said he said, “you ruined my life”. Her! I don’t know what went on but it sounds like all the info came out from her side. It also sounds like the university was instructing her as well. I hate to call it a setup because he was a dumb ass but something doesn’t add up for me and my spider senses.
