Michigan Football Coach Looks Forward to Release of Text Messages in Sign-Stealing Scandal
Michigan coach Sherrone Moore finds himself in the middle of a sign-stealing scandal involving former low-level recruiting staffer Connor Stalions. The NCAA has alleged that Moore violated rules according to sources familiar with the situation, leading to Stalions’ resignation.
During a recent press conference, Moore expressed his eagerness for the release of his text message exchanges with Stalions. The NCAA has accused Moore of deleting these messages, but the coach maintains his cooperation with the investigation.
Despite the controversy, Moore is focused on preparing his team for the upcoming season. The Wolverines are ranked No. 9 in the preseason AP poll and are set to kick off their season against Fresno State on August 31.
Michigan was previously placed on probation by the NCAA in connection to the sign-stealing scandal. The governing body imposed fines and recruiting restrictions on the program as part of a negotiated resolution.
With the season fast approaching, Moore and his team are gearing up for what promises to be an exciting campaign. Follow along for the latest updates on Michigan football and stay tuned for developments in the ongoing NCAA investigation.
