Overview

  • Sherrone Moore, Michigan’s head football coach, will serve a self-imposed two-game suspension during the 2025 season due to his involvement in the 2023 advanced scouting scandal.
  • The suspension, scheduled for Weeks 3 and 4, will sideline Moore for games against Central Michigan and Nebraska and bar him from all team-related activities during those weeks.
  • Moore’s suspension stems from allegations that he deleted 52 text messages with Connor Stalions, the former staffer accused of orchestrating the sign-stealing operation.
  • The NCAA issued Michigan a Notice of Allegations in August 2024 citing 11 violations, including six Level I infractions, with Moore’s actions classified as a Level II violation.
  • The NCAA Committee on Infractions is set to review the case in June, and additional penalties for Moore and the program remain possible before the season begins.
