Fired Michigan coach Sherrone Moore could face over six years in prison and fines if convicted of felonious home invasion and misdemeanor stalking, charges involving a football staffer with whom the university and investigators claim Moore had an inappropriate relationship.
According to court records of the initial hearing following Moore's Dec. 10 arrest obtained by The Athletic, the staffer's attorney claimed to police that Moore had a 'long history of domestic violence' against a female football staffer during their relationship.
The female staffer alleged to have had an affair of approximately two years with Moore told police the 39-year-old coach also grabbed and pointed knives at her during the home invasion that day.
Authorities recorded the statement of the female staffer disclosing her relationship with Moore, who is married with three children, to the university hours earlier. She said her intent was to leave town when an emotional Moore barged into her apartment.
At this time, Moore has not been charged with assault related to the knife allegations, but county investigators said they are still reviewing evidence.
If not for his recent missteps, Moore could be preparing the Wolverines for a high-profile bowl game against Texas in Orlando on Dec. 31. That assignment fell to interim coach Biff Poggi.
