Ex-Michigan Coach Sherrone Moore Gets 18 Months’ Probation After Plea Deal

Prosecutors dropped felonies under a plea that now faces backlash from the accuser.

Overview

  • Moore, sentenced Tuesday, received 18 months of probation and just over $1,000 in fines, with orders for no contact, counseling, drug and alcohol testing, and no weapons.
  • He had pleaded no contest in March to trespassing and malicious use of a telecommunications device, which led prosecutors to dismiss a felony home invasion count and other charges.
  • The case traces to Dec. 10, 2025, when prosecutors say he went to assistant Paige Shiver’s apartment after his firing, brandished butter knives, and threatened to harm himself.
  • Judge J. Cedric Simpson said jail was not warranted based on the full record but warned that any probation violation could result in incarceration.
  • Shiver called the sentence inadequate and her lawyers signaled possible civil action as the University of Michigan’s external athletic review, which has cost more than $6 million, continues.
