Sherrone Moore Firing Sherrone Moore, head football coach at the University of Michigan, was fired for cause on December 9, 2025. The university cited evidence of an "inappropriate relationship with a staff member," which violated university policy. Athletic director Warde Manuel stated that Michigan maintains zero tolerance for such behavior.
Investigation Details The probe began in mid-November following an anonymous tip, with additional evidence emerging shortly before the dismissal. No specifics about the relationship were released publicly. This ended Moore's two-year tenure, during which the Wolverines went 17-8 overall.
Prior Context Moore had faced earlier sanctions, including a suspension for NCAA violations tied to a sign-stealing scandal involving deleted texts with former staffer Connor Stalions. He was the program's offensive coordinator before succeeding Jim Harbaugh post-2024 national title.
