Sherrone Moore fired

Michigan is such a joke. Cheating, stealing signs, compromising the integrity of the game and the university....not a problem. Dating a coworker...NO TOLERANCE! I won't be surprised if he can win some of the money back.
Apparently, screwing the game is okay, but a staffer...not so much.

(I'll show myself out)

Dating? He’s a married father of three who was having an affair with his assistant. The Head Coach at the University of Michigan is the most visible person in the entire state, not to mention a public employee. You can’t do something that stupid and expect to get away with it, especially when you’re a not so good coach.

i’m not accusing anyone of this but just my imagination running wild… i wonder if a booster has ever offered a female staffer a few stacks of cash to create a “for cause” situation in order to avoid a hefty buyout
Or an AD has merely hired a high dollar working woman for a couple of months to save a few million.

It would be money well spent...they are the ones paying the buyouts!

Wow, he really is stupid. I still find Michigan's selective morals suspicious

Did he break a law?
Should all public employees live their lives to a higher standard than people who work in the private sector?

I understand your point of view here, but it was likely in his contract and university policy.

If he was contending for a title it isn’t an issue…if you catch my drift

I guess he hasn’t read The Bobby Petrino Story. One would think guys would learn not to listen to the little brain in their pants but it’s a story as old as time.

It's an affair with a staffer so most private companies will fire executives for this also.

What part of a potential sexual harassment lawsuit do you not understand?

Breaking the law isn’t the bar here. If you’re the CEO of a Fortune 500 company and have an affair with a subordinate, you’re getting fired too. The head coach at any major college football program is no different, this is a leadership issue, a power-dynamic issue, and a reputational issue. His job isn’t like a typical public employee, it’s a high-visibility leadership role where personal conduct directly affects the university.

Also, it’s not as if Moore should be surprised. There’s no way that Michigan doesn’t spell out exactly what constitutes a for-cause termination in their contract.

Sounds like this is a Bobby Petrino situation except we didn’t get to see a humorous post motorcycle accident press conference. Someone needs to do some photoshop work asap.
