Former University of Michigan head football coach Sherrone Moore was taken into custody just hours after being fired on Wednesday, Dec. 10, deepening a rapidly unfolding scandal surrounding the once-celebrated coach. Moore was dismissed following allegations that he engaged in an “inappropriate relationship,” marking a stunning fall from grace for a figure previously seen as a rising star in college football.

Shortly after his termination, officers from the Pittsfield Township Police Department detained Moore as they launched an investigation into an alleged assault. Police confirmed they were dispatched to a location in Pittsfield Township “for the purposes of investigating an alleged assault,” adding that “a suspect in this case was taken into custody.” Authorities have not released details on the alleged victim or the circumstances leading to the confrontation.

The dramatic sequence of events has sent shockwaves through Michigan’s athletic community, raising serious concerns about leadership, conduct, and the future of the football program. The investigation remains active as police continue gathering evidence. Visit www.jocomms.com for more news details and follow us on all our social media platforms.
