Michigan Self-Imposes Two-Game Suspension for Head Coach Sherrone Moore

The suspension, tied to Moore's role in the 2023 sign-stealing scandal, will sideline him during Weeks 3 and 4 of the 2025 season, while the NCAA's final ruling remains pending.

Overview

  • Sherrone Moore's suspension stems from allegations that he deleted 52 text messages with former Michigan staffer Connor Stalions during the 2023 sign-stealing investigation.
  • The two-game suspension will take place during Michigan's matchups against Central Michigan and Nebraska, barring Moore from all team-related activities in those weeks.
  • Michigan's self-imposed penalties are part of an effort to address the NCAA's August 2024 Notice of Allegations, which cited the program for 11 violations, including six Level I infractions.
  • Moore will still coach the Wolverines' first two games, including a high-profile matchup against his alma mater, Oklahoma, in Week 2.
  • The NCAA's Committee on Infractions is set to review the case in June, with the possibility of additional penalties being imposed before the 2025 season begins.
