Sherrone Moore set for sentencing today. What will judge order?
Experts and Moore's lawyer think jail time is unlikely for the ex-coach, who took a plea tied to entering the home of a woman with whom he had an affair.
Ex-Michigan football coach Sherrone Moore is scheduled to be sentenced this afternoon in connection to criminal charges stemming from a 2025 encounter at the home of a woman with whom he had a roughly two-year affair. No additional jail time is expected, say experts and Moore's lawyer. Moore, 40, reached a plea agreement in March with Washtenaw County prosecutors.
He pleaded no contest to malicious use of a telecommunications device and one count of trespass. Both are misdemeanors and different from charges originally brought last year. District 14A Judge J.
Cedric Simpson will convey Moore's sentence during a 2 p. m. hearing Tuesday, April 14.
While the law indicates jail time is an option, experts told the Free Press probation is far more likely. In December, Moore, who is married with children, was fired after U-M determined he engaged in an inappropriate relationship. Earlier that week, Moore's then-assistant, 32-year-old Paige Shiver, told university officials about the relationship.
