It’s a story the minute the affair started because it opened up the university to a huge sexual harassment lawsuit.


Sure, from a legal sense, but from a college football fan perspective we know there's a better chance the coach of the team we root for is participating in something nefarious.

Because he's her boss. She's s state employee. She was given a $32k raise this year (from $58k to $90k) after not getting a raise at all the previous 2 years. This isn't just about the morals of a married guy cheating on his wife.

I get all that. And he should be punished for it.

It just doesn't register as a pearl-clutching moment for me because this has unfortunately become somewhat of a norm for college football coaches.

The murder/suicide thing is where I start raising eyebrows and clutching.

I don’t think anyone really cares that he was cheating on his wife so what point are you trying to make?

So based off what is known this is my guess of the events:

His wife was pregnant and she’s not high quality snow anyways so he steps out starts tapping convenient quality snow. All is well.

Someone catches wind or hints of it, reports them, they deny it, officials are like whatever, no undeniable proof, we’ll move on.

Side snow gets knocked up, gives Moore some sort of ultimatum. He thinks he can call her bluff. Pussy is undefeated and she knows she’ll have no real lasting repercussions for her actions so she goes to HNIC and spills her guts about him being in hers.

He gets fired, he has a not so pleasant conversation with the wife who has who knows in her ear since the news broke. Dude’s life going down like Littlefinger when Sansa said Gotcha Bitch!

From coaching in the Big House to living it in. Gonna make a helluva of a 50 for 50 story.

The only reason the story changed is that Michigan saw he was overmatched as a head coach this season. They waited until he had a bad season, and until after signing day, to act.

Meh, this season was objectively better than last season. The only difference was he didn't beat Ohio State, which is obviously a big deal to them, but I'm not buying that they were just looking for an excuse to get rid of him anyway and sat on it.

If they were so certain he was outmatched as a coach and was diddling his assistant, they could have fired him in mid-October when they were 4-2.

He did this after they fired him. I'm not excusing his conduct, but Michigan has known about this affair, and waited until after signing day to act.

Again, this isn't about clutching pearls. When you have a job like him, you can't have sex with people who directly report to you. You can't provide thee appearance that your sexual relationship with a subordinate will give her unfair or unjust opportunities.

If he was having an affair with some random girl who wasn't his employee, he wouldn't have been fired. He would have maybe been embarrassed and divorced. Compare what happened to Petrino when he fricked a staffer and Lane Kiffin who fricked a lot of girls. One lost his job and the other got divorced and acquired a funny nickname.

Moore having an affair isn't the story. Who he had an affair with is the story.

Neither does anyone else so you’re just wasting your own time making some argument that doesn’t exist

This is exactly what you said. I just don’t think you’re smart enough to understand at this point

If he’s smashing a waitress at Hooters, this is not a story.

Hell if he’s smashing an UM English professor… might break a university policy but probably not fired.

But smashing an athletics staffer and possibly lying about it? That will get you fired anywhere.

He was cleared of having direct knowledge

However the investigation said the fact he dud not know meant he was not spaying attention .

From what I’ve read, the rumor time line is

1) he had confrontation with wife at his house
2) he than went to staffer house and had another blow up
3) police locate him and arrest him
4) Michigan fires him after 1-3 take place

Allowing the coach to have a cute young assistant was a big mistake.


Then giving her a 55% raise for the same job she did the year before. That should've raised flags by itself.

A tabloid story but not fireable offense

Probably gets him a quiet reprimand but not in writing If the English professor doesn't have tenure she might be at risk

Probably. Unless you are winning the conference. Then it might disappear depending on how discreet the involved parties are.

And if you have a legitimate police incident with a threatened murder-suicide? That's not just fired, that's likely criminal or psychiatric institutionalization
