Just when you thought the college football coaching carousel had ended, a bombshell transaction occurred on Wednesday to keep the carousel going. The Michigan Wolverines fired head coach Sherrone Moore, with cause, for what the school’s athletic director, Warde Manuel, says was “an inappropriate relationship with a staff member.”
While more details are sure to follow, the Wolverines have to move forward. Manuel appointed Biff Poggi as the interim head coach, ahead of the school’s matchup versus the Texas Longhorns in the Citrus Bowl on Dec. 31. But at 65, he’s not the long-term answer, and most of the available head coaches have since landed other college football jobs.
