Moore Gone at Michigan....

[HawkPowerlifter]

When I first heard, I thought to myself: "9-3? Here we go again." But having an inappropriate relationship with a staffer....yeah that will do it. With Michigan's recent history of scandals, I assume they just wanted to get ahead of it.

This is interesting. Evidently Moore "engaged in an inappropriate relationship with a staff member."

Michigan fires football coach Sherrone Moore for cause due to 'inappropriate relationship with staff member'

Sherrone Moore has been fired for cause after two seasons leading the Wolverines.

Do you think they'd have fired Jim Harbaugh for the same offense? It looks opportunistic to me, not that it is not deserved.

Matt Campbell could have waited a week and got the Mixhigan job

My thoughts exactly. With the staffer also being prego....ooof! This was ongoing, and I assume some knew about it possibly and this was just something to get him out (with cause). So they are not on the hook for his contract.

Mel Tucker at Michigan State wasn't too long ago either.

If they beat Ohio State does this get swept under the rug?

You can combine these threads. I swear I checked before posting mine.

Campbell's family has to be losing it right now. Ann Arbor any day over State College.

Would Harbaugh have committed the same offense?

Good opp to get rid of Moore, but he definitely screwed the pooch. OK...poor choice of words. Basic HR: married guys shouldn't fool around with people on their staff...especially married guys in leadership positions.

Especially since it's winter and the yards have snow.

Not so sure about that. Moore was on his way out of Ann Arbor one way or another -- his record of 18-8 as HC over the past 2 seasons doesn't cut it at Michigan. There's more pressure to win at Michigan than Penn St., PLUS you have to play Ohio St. every season. If Campbell goes 18-8 over his first two seasons at PSU, he'll be ok. If the next Michigan coach has the same record, he'll be sent packing like Moore.

Oh. Absolutely.My thought too. But if you're gonna leverage something for opportunity, the timing was really bad. And I dunno you can get past "inappropriate relationship" these days.
Impromptu partying with coeds at Mizzou in the 90s Eustachy style, yah. But inappropriate relationships are pretty binary and would be the end of any coach.

The chick he knocked up is a friggin’ smoke factory. Yowza.

Hope she was worth it, looks pretty high maintenance and now he’s out of a job and half his net worth.

Gonna be paying four kids’ child support while he’s working at Northeastern Appalachian State Tech as a DB coach.
