Breaking News: Michigan Fires Sherrone Moore for Cause

 



More to come as the story continues to break.  Terrible time to look for a new coach.   

I have one wish for Christmas now, please bring Jesse Minter to Ann Arbor!   Please!!!

Allejula!!!

Not to relish in someone's demise, but this is the best for the program. We were only going to be stagnant as long as Sherrone was in charge.

Who's next? Minter, Fisch, Keys, Lea, or Fleck. All better than Sherrone IMHO.

Cormac said...

I imagine some here will be overjoyed!

I don't know about Jesse Minter. Didn't he have a show-cause on him?

Alablue said...

John Harbaugh!
His time with Baltimore is almost over. I was wondering how UofM could get rid of Moore and still save face. Funny how things work out.

Dec. 10, 2025 Alabue said John Harbaugh next Wolverine Head Coach! Take that ncaa...

Mastermind said...

I thought Minter had a show cause, also. Shame cuz I like that guy.

Mastermind said...

Yes, but is John willing to come back to college? He has a good history as a college assistant and ties to the state.

I don't know if Moore was the coach to achieve what all Michigan fans want, it was still too early to tell. But this is a fucked up way for it to end.

Mastermind said...

Warde slow played this like a Texas hold em hand. Collected all the evidence, then waited for all the recruits to sign their letters of intent, then fired Sherrone.

MM, Minter did or does. He had/has a one year show-cause sanction. Someone over at 247 said that it, the show-cause sanction, starts when he attempts to come back to college. Another person over there said that it was over in April. Who knows!

When something like this happens, it is sad. The program, the kids, the staff all are negatively affected. I can't help but think that because 1) the school obviously knew about this and was investigating this early on that they knew they were going to fire him. Word on the street is that the players and likely coaches new about Moore's affairs. 2) The school obviously waited until after NSD to at least finish this recruiting cycle even though the other schools would try to pouch them. 3) I'm thinking [hoping] that they had the foresight to have another coach in mind and had reached out to said coach because timing is everything. 4) If they have a great coach in mind and can at least announce the new coach then he can reach out to the current players to try to get them to stay. At least that's what I'm hoping for. IMHO!!!

ScottyDoggs said...

Voice of Reason ..... correct! The firing was planned for a while (I'm sure) .... a great quick hire would be quite advantageous! If drawn out like Penn State's ordeal could create a loss of player crisis!

ScottyDoggs said...

I am not a believer in God, but this might be my proof that there is a Supreme being. More could have hung on for years and I am too old to wait for change. Get a great hire and not another cheerleader type! Did beat Ohio State the year before and a great flag planter but nothing else.

Reports now surfacing of Sherrone getting arrested today. This is no longer part of the game of football, and I feel for Sherrone at this difficult time in his life.

Alablue said...

Yuk

ScottyDoggs said...

I bet my last dollar that Sherrone sought revenge on his girlfriend probably because he blames her and she might of cooperated with authorities. The only person at fault was Sherrone.

ScottyDoggs said...

I do believe Bob had some prior knowledge that this was going down .... that's why he skipped the Sherrone write-up.

Mastermind said...

Ya, women are always involved some how. What's that Jimmy Buffett song, Margaritaville? "Somebody claims that there's a woman to blame... but I know. Its my own damn fault."

ScottyDoggs said...

I know I am posting too much .... But Sherrone was like the teats on a boar hog .... utterly useless.

ScottyDoggs said...

Back in the 80's some southern states had "chain-gangs" picking up trash along highways .... I just wonder if that is part of Sherrone's future employment?

Mr. Latch Key said...

"supposedly" moore went and kicked in the girl's door and came at her with a knife.

Mr. Latch Key said...

This from from former A2 officer...but, that said, I'd arrest him for criminal negligence for failing to develop a $12M QB!

Goblu said...

My son sent this- his roommate’s dad is a big donor-

Friend who's dad is a donor said sherrone is currently going crazy:
"Apparently Sherrone is in protective custody. Threatened to kill himself to his wife, left his house, went to staffer and held knife to his own throat, said I'm gonna kms but you first, then intercepted at church by police because his wife has his location"

ScottyDoggs said...

Mr. Latch Key: "Yikes" and Yowzah! How to destroy yourself in two easy lessons ..... to be written by Sherrone in-between rock breaking sessions in the "grey-bar motel!

Mr. Latch Key said...

Devin Gardner hinted at something a couple of weeks ago that programs should look at Joe Brady as a good hire - Bills OC

ScottyDoggs said...

Made me howl with laughter!!!!!

Mastermind said...

Thats sad to hear. I always thought Sherrone was a good guy. What a horrible turn of events. Dang. Thoughts and prayers to all involved.

ScottyDoggs said...

Should Jim Harbaugh share in the blame for this debacle, after all he highly recommended his hire ..... is Jimmy responsible like a bartender that gives a patron too much to drink then drives on wrong side of highway and kills a family?

Mastermind said...

Yes please. Last offensive coach we had, not counting R.R., was Gary Mohller.

Mastermind said...

He was doing his boy Sherrone a solid, but he was really doing an injustice to Michigan. Sherrone clearly wasn't ready.

ScottyDoggs said...

Sherrone's wife is probably singing >>>> "stand by your man"

ScottyDoggs said...

The new "clown show" starring Sherrone more as the "mindless fit-throwing, brainless clown episodes being filmed right now as we speak .... if some of his above actions are true, then we found a replacement for Bozo, what a piece of work! GADZOOKS!!!

Voice of Reason said...

I remember someone (I'm not sure who) said earlier during the year that Warde Manual was interested in Jesse Minter as his head coach. I thought it was odd because they had Moore as the coach but now that statement makes more sense if true. This investigation has been in the works at least since the summer.

One youtuber (Josh Pate) indicated that Michigan's administration may have been waiting for Moore to have a losing season or particularly losing against the bad teams so that they could fire him during the season just like PSU did James Franklin and not have to use the "Just Cause" clause..

It's still speculation whether or not they've contacted someone about the job before now. IMHO!!!

Mr. Latch Key said...

Exhibit A - Rob Reinhart (@RealRobReinhart)
#BREAKING: Sources have provided me with the graphic details leading up to the arrest of former Michigan HC Sherrone Moore:

During an argument with his wife, Moore threatened to kill himself. He then drove to – and broke into – the home of his assistant, where he held a knife to his own throat and threatened to kill both himself and the staffer.

He was then intercepted at a local church after his wife provided his phone’s location to the authorities. He is now in protective custody. Just a tragic chain of events for all involved.

Mr. Latch Key said...

What ?!? Alabama's Kalen DeBoer a candidate for Michigan head coach -- Michigan football's hiring bar is Kalen DeBoer. Clear it, or hire him

ScottyDoggs said...

i PROMISE THIS IS MY LAST POST ..... I will now pay homage to Sherrone by taking a "big fat crap!" Lock the clown up ..... need an old trump rally cry .... " Lock him up .... lock him up". Put him in a cage where people can throw circus peanuts at him!

Sir Blue Monkey said...

I wasn't a fan of Sheronne the coach, but not happy the way this went down. I hope he is ok and not suicidal if that's true. I feel really bad as he has 3 young daughters. He needs to get help and get his stuff together and at least take care of his kids.

Minter had a show cause and it expired this year. I would offer him more money as I think he's making around $2 Miilon a year and he may say no, but he would at least have to think about it. Say $8 to $10 Million as it's all play money with college sports.

Sir Blue Monkey said...

John Harbaugh would be a home run. Call him up and tell him we will pay more money than he's making and that he's won a SB and now he can win a NC which his brother hasn't accomplished yet.

Sir Blue Monkey said...

I am not sure I believe that because the recruits can get out of their commitments which there will probably be a few as schools are coming after them hard right now. I am not a fan of Warde and he should be fired for hiring Sheronne in the first place. Either way, this is messed up and sad.

Sir Blue Monkey said...

I am laughing out loud right now for real!

Mastermind said...

Dude, wtf

Sherrone is a good man that gave his heart and soul to the program. He's not the first man to fall to the temptation of another woman. Please be respectful. This is life, not football. Thoughts and prayers to Sherrone. Hang in there buddy, you have a bright future.

Sir Blue Monkey said...

Warde is the one that signed him even if our boy Jimmy said he was the guy. Warde needs to get this right unless they fire him tomorrow which I am ok with.

ScottyDoggs said...

Yes mastermind, I am a bit too harsh, but he is no longer a regular Joe (like us), a man in charge of Michigan's football program is held to higher standards. Did you know some of the famous serial killers were cops or x-cops (just an after thought! Wonder if his wife will kick him to the curb?

ScottyDoggs said...

If he kills himself, have two ball-bearers carry him in a two-handle coffin (A GARBAGE CAN).

ScottyDoggs said...

This all proves Chowman wrong > Sherrone's actions prove he was good head -coach material {{{LOL}}}} also I am a liar, I said I would quit posting!

ScottyDoggs said...

Latest bulletin: Sherrone will be head coach at Michigan State, MSU will now fill their roster with inmates from prisons with NIL funds!

ScottyDoggs said...

Hate to disagree with Chowman's observations ... But Sherrone is a great coach and family man ..... as Trump would say .... "This is all fake news"

ScottyDoggs said...

I have seen dogs eat their own "Poo" .... will Sherrone eat his own poo in prison? Stay tuned to this bat "channel".

Sir Blue Monkey said...

John U. Bacon posted: "Strong reason to believe Michigan's Board of Regents will be assessing Warde Manuel's role in this, and his future at U-M."

Hmmm....

ScottyDoggs said...

I hold Sherrone Moore to high esteem, along with pedophiles and mass murderers, pick-pockets, etc.

ScottyDoggs said...

Excellent post when compared to my "trash".
