By Rohan Nadkarni and Marlene Lenthang Hours after the University of Michigan fired Sherrone Moore as head football coach, alleging he had an “inappropriate relationship” with a staff member, he was in jail, according to booking records. Earlier Wednesday, athletic director Warde Manuel announced in a statement that Moore “has been terminated, with cause, effective immediately.” “Following a university investigation, credible evidence was found that Coach Moore engaged in an inappropriate relationship with a staff member. This conduct constitutes a clear violation of University policy, and UM maintains zero tolerance for such behavior,” the statement continued. ESPN first reported that Moore had been detained.
