Moore Gone at Michigan....

[Fryowa]

Uh oh

 

[Garandx]

Yeah this took an extreme turn.

 

[HuckFinn]

Moore has been arrested for assault. In jail.

 

[Fryowa]

What’s going around on twitter is that he got into an argument with his wife, told her he was going to kill himself, then drove to the staffer’s house and tried to break in, and then told the staffer girl (the one he got pregnant), he was going to kill himself too.

Now, one could say he needs compassion, but the guy is married and has 3 kids…he’s the last one in this situation who needs to be felt sorry for for cheating on his wife and getting someone prego.

 

[Fryowa]

Also, he’s toast as far as getting another job. He’ll get a 4 year ncaa coaching ban

Yep. Seen that a bunch. He may have also threatened the staffer.

What will be interesting to me is who squealed and why...

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

There's still time for Matt Campbell to take us into the greatest timeline ever.

Yeah it's really weird Moore seems like a really stable guy. My guess is arrogance and ignorance caught up to him. From some reports I have seen the relationship was well known and the investigation was not a well kept secret from many media insiders but was kept very quiet.

Alex, I'll take "A Story You Will Never See Come Out Of Iowa City" for $1,000.

I thought that too. Then remembered that rumors were quietly circulating for several months...so the agents knew the rumors and so did their clients. So Matt probably knew.

It was likely the staffer, she probably called the police after he assaulted her.

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.

I wasn't suggesting that Harbaugh would have committed such an offense, just that if he did, would the penalty have been the same? Lots of transgressions get overlooked in the college football world when you're winning vs. when you're not, at least up to Michigan standards.

But yeah, this may have been a bridge too far even for someone like Harbaugh. Hard to imagine what Moore was thinking when he had so much to lose.

It's now come out that the AD knew and was trying to cover for Moore. This is going to get worse before it gets better for Michigan.

My first thought when I heard about this is that screwing a staffer can not be enough to get you fired. Teenage hot dog venders are OK, but 32 year old staffers are off limits? Then I heard the rest of the story. Yikes!
