Former Michigan Football Coach Sherrone Moore Charged with Home Invasion and Stalking
In a shocking turn of events, former University of Michigan football coach Sherrone Moore has been charged with third-degree felony home invasion and misdemeanor counts of stalking. The charges come just two days after Moore was fired from his position as head coach.
According to prosecutors, Moore had an "intimate relationship" with the victim, which ended on Monday, but he continued to make numerous phone calls and send messages to her despite being ignored. On Wednesday, Moore's behavior became increasingly erratic when he showed up at the victim's apartment, claiming she was responsible for ruining his life.
Moore allegedly barged into the victim's residence, grabbed several kitchen utensils, and made a series of intimidating statements, including threatening to kill himself and making her watch as he did so. The victim called her attorney and police, and Moore eventually left.
Washtenaw County First Assistant Prosecutor Kati Rezmierski described the totality of Moore's behavior as "highly threatening and highly intimidating," stating that the victim was terrorized.
Moore has been released on a $25,000 bond with conditions that include undergoing mental health treatment, wearing a GPS tether, and being prohibited from contacting the victim or possessing any weapons. His next court appearance is scheduled for January 22, 2026.
The university fired Moore without warning, citing a clear violation of University policy. Michigan athletic director Warde Manuel stated that the conduct constitutes "zero tolerance" for behavior like this.
Moore's departure has led to the appointment of interim coach Biff Poggi, who will lead the team into its Citrus Bowl game against No. 13 Texas on New Year's Eve.
