See The Charges Filed Against Sherrone Moore

UPDATE (December 12, 2025, 1 p.m.): Former Michigan head coach Sherrone Moore was arraigned in Washtenaw County on Friday, December 12. Moore has been charged with felony home invasion, misdemeanor stalking, and breaking and entering.

ORIGINAL STORY: It is official: the Sherrone Moore era at the Michigan Wolverines came to an abrupt end Wednesday. The school announced that Moore was "terminated, with cause effective immediately," after an internal investigation uncovered credible evidence he had been involved in an inappropriate relationship with a staff member.

Moore’s Coaching Timeline in Ann Arbor

Moore's career at Michigan started in 2018, first as a tight ends coach, then offensive line coach and coordinator, before being promoted to head coach in 2024 following the departure of Jim Harbaugh. Over the course of his two seasons at the helm of the program, he led the Wolverines to an overall record of 16-8 and continued Michigan's push to stay among college football's elite programs.

Who Is Biff Poggi

With Moore dismissed, the school quickly named Biff Poggi, the team's associate head coach, as the interim head coach. Poggi, who previously worked alongside Harbaugh at Michigan and led Charlotte's football program, will now guide the team through its upcoming bowl game against Texas.

The firing adds another dramatic twist for Michigan football, a program already under the microscope for recent NCAA investigations and staff changes. It also raises questions about what comes next, both for the Wolverines and their recruiting efforts heading into 2026.

What This Means for the Texas Bowl Game

University officials said the decision was made after a "thorough review" and reaffirmed Michigan's commitment to upholding its internal conduct policies. The timing, just weeks before postseason play, makes this one of the most shocking college football shake-ups of the year.

Fans across Michigan and the college football world will remain stunned for a bit, wondering what the next chapter of Michigan Wolverines football will look like without Sherrone Moore at the helm.
