Former Michigan Coach Sherrone Moore Charged With Home Invasion and Stalking After Firing

Michigan installed Biff Poggi as interim coach pending a permanent hire.

Overview

  • Washtenaw County prosecutors charged Moore with three counts, including third-degree home invasion, misdemeanor stalking tied to a prior dating relationship, and entering without breaking.
  • At his arraignment, a judge set a $25,000 bond with a no-contact order and restrictions on travel, weapons, alcohol and other conduct.
  • Prosecutors said in court that Moore allegedly forced his way into the alleged victim’s home, grabbed kitchen knives and scissors, and threatened to kill himself while blaming the victim.
  • Moore had been detained hours after Michigan fired him for cause, with Pittsfield Township police investigating an alleged assault and booking him into the county jail.
  • The university said Moore’s dismissal followed credible findings of an inappropriate relationship with a staff member, leaving no buyout owed on his five-year, $5.5 million‑per‑year contract as the program prepares for the Dec. 31 Citrus Bowl and begins a coaching search.
