Sherrone Moore is moving on from Ann Arbor in a very literal way.
The former Michigan head coach and his wife have put their Scio Township home on the market for $1.7 million, seven months after the school fired him. The 5,858-square-foot property sits on a half-acre lot and comes with a three-car garage, a pool, a chef-style kitchen, a pond and a hot tub. Built in 2005, the house also features hardwood floors and three fireplaces.
Moore bought the home in 2023 for $1.3 million, before he was named Michigan’s head coach in 2024. Renovations on the property reportedly ran about $300,000. Real estate agents expect strong interest because of the location.
Detroit News first reported the listing on July 23.
Moore’s exit from Michigan came after a university investigation into his conduct. He had been considered one of the sport’s rising young coaches and took over for Jim Harbaugh after Michigan’s 2023 championship season, but his run ended after two seasons.
Michigan fired Moore in December after an internal investigation found credible evidence of an inappropriate relationship involving a former staff member named Paige Shiver. Players reportedly noticed unusual behavior from Moore in the weeks before, and some had seen him near the staffer’s apartment late at night.
The university’s review was also costly. Michigan reportedly paid law firm Jenner & Block more than $11 million.
The findings said the athletic department wasn’t always transparent and that accountability slipped in handling certain situations. Michigan released a summary of those findings just last week, and the report stopped short of calling the misconduct widespread.
Moore also faced criminal charges tied to the same incident. He allegedly went to Shiver’s apartment the day he was let go.
He later pleaded no contest to two misdemeanor charges after prosecutors initially pursued more serious counts, including a felony that was later dropped as part of the plea deal. In April, a judge sentenced him to 18 months of probation.
After sentencing, his attorney, Ellen Michaels, said, “He and his wife, Kelli, are ready to move forward with their family.”
The home sale looks like part of that move forward. The listing does not mention Moore’s coaching career, and Michigan has already turned the page with new leadership in its athletic department.

Al Goldens Praise May Have Exposed A Bengals Secondary Shakeup
Al Goldens early praise of Cincinnatis new defensive additions offered a small window into how the Bengals may be sorting out their back end as camp approaches. Among the players drawing attention is Kyle Dugger, the hybrid safety brought in as a free agent from the Steelers, whose size and versatility give the defense another option as it pieces together roles in the secondary.
What makes Dugger interesting is not just the experience he brings, but the way he fits into a crowded competition for snaps. The Bengals have several capable defensive backs in the mix, and Goldens comments suggest the staff is still weighing how to use that group most effectively, whether in the slot, in dime looks or somewhere else that takes advantage of the rosters flexibility.

Bengals Week 1 Opponent Suddenly Has A Major Problem Up Front
The Bengals Week 1 trip to Tampa Bay just picked up an unexpected layer of intrigue up front. Buccaneers defensive tackle Vita Vea is entering the final year of his deal, and after extension talks stalled, the situation around one of the leagues most imposing interior linemen has become a real storyline heading into training camp.
For Cincinnati, the timing is notable because the front office already addressed the position this offseason by adding Dexter Lawrence II, a move that gave the defense a bigger, more disruptive presence in the middle. Defensive coordinator Al Golden has spoken highly of Lawrences ability to win one-on-one matchups and hold his ground, which makes the Bengals feel set at the spot even as one of their first opponents deals with uncertainty there.

Zac Taylor Just Sent A Different Message About Bengals Expectations
Zac Taylor is heading into the season with a different kind of energy around the Bengals, and he is not pretending otherwise. After Cincinnatis Super Bowl LVI run, the expectation has shifted from chasing a breakthrough to proving it was no one-year spike, and Taylor has acknowledged the pressure that comes with trying to get the team back to the playoffs.
What makes this worth watching is how that pressure may be shaping the way he leads. Taylor has suggested it is pushing him to be more demanding and more accountable with his coaching staff, a subtle but meaningful change for a team that has not yet played a regular-season or preseason game. The Bengals still have to show it on the field, but the tone around the building already sounds a little different. [Read more 🡒]
