Former Michigan head coach Sherrone Moore’s alleged misconduct had been widely known among university employees during the last two seasons with him at the helm, multiple sources told CBS Sports.
Moore, 39, was fired with cause Wednesday for engaging in an “inappropriate” relationship with a staff member — and was detained by Pittsfield police later that day for an alleged assault.
“This was the worst-kept secret,” one source said, adding that rumors of Moore’s alleged misconduct with the staffer had been floating around for some time.
A high-level Michigan booster claimed Schembechler Hall — the football building — was “swarming with lawyers” earlier this month.
“Everybody in the program has known this the last two seasons,” the booster told CBS.
“This is a sad day to see it come to this. I feel horrible for all the players, coaches and families who are going to be disrupted.
