Michigan football has terminated the contract of head coach Sherrone Moore, citing an 'inappropriate relationship' with a staff member. The university conducted an investigation and found evidence of the misconduct, which violates their policies. Athletic director Warde Manuel stated that Michigan maintains a zero-tolerance policy for such behavior. The firing has sparked curiosity among fans, with many taking to social media to ask about the identity of the staff member involved. 'Who is she? She ruined his job and family,' one fan tweeted. Moore's dismissal comes at a time when the team is preparing for the Cheez-It Citrus Bowl against Texas on December 31. Despite the controversy, the Wolverines finished the regular season with a 9-3 record and are ranked No. 18 in the College Football Playoff standings. This decision marks the second coaching change for Michigan this season, following the firing of special teams coach JB Brown earlier this month. Moore had taken over as head coach two seasons ago, compiling an 18-8 record. He was set to conduct interviews to name Brown's successor before his own termination.
