Sherrone Moore, who was abruptly fired as the University of Michigan’s head football coach this week, was charged Friday (Dec. 12) with three felonies, including burglary and stalking a woman he dated, prosecutors said. First Assistant Prosecutor Kati Rezmierski said, “Moore went to the woman’s apartment after he was fired and terrorized her.” She added that Moore “grabbed several butter knives and kitchen shears and began threatening his own life,” allegedly telling the woman, “I’m going to kill myself. I’m going to make you look. My blood is on your hands.” His firing was immediately followed by his arrest on Wednesday. The 39-year-old has since spent two nights in jail. Allegations and Charges According to the Washtenaw County Prosecutor’s Office, Moore is accused of trespassing into the home of a woman he had an affair with and “terrorizing” her after he lost his head coaching job. Prosecutors confirmed charges of burglary, domestic assault and stalking. Firing and arrest The 39-year-old coach was fired on Wednesday because he had an inappropriate relationship with a staff member. Hours later he was arrested and has since spent two nights in jail. Rezmierski noted that Moore was fired after the woman told university officials that he repeatedly called and texted her. Defense attorney Joe Simon disputed the allegations, saying: “There is no evidence to suggest he is a threat.” Moore’s attorney, Joe Simon, pushed back at the allegations, saying, “There is no evidence to suggest he is a threat.” Fired for cause after internal investigation The University of Michigan announced Moore’s firing earlier this week, citing an inappropriate relationship with a staff member. The school said an internal investigation turned up “credible evidence” of misconduct and confirmed that the behavior was a “clear violation of university policy.” Because his firing was for cause, the university will not owe Moore a buyout on the remaining years of his five-year, $5.5 million contract. Rapid rise Moore was promoted to head coach after the Wolverines won the national title. He succeeded Jim Harbaugh, who left for the NFL to coach the Los Angeles Chargers. His firing and subsequent arrest is a stunning fall for the coach who led the Wolverines for two seasons. Impact on the football program Michigan is scheduled to face No. 14 Texas in the Citrus Bowl on Dec. 31. Biff Poggi — who previously filled in for Moore during his suspension related to the Harbaugh-era sign-stealing scandal — will once again serve as interim coach. (With AP input)
