The University of Michigan is still hiring the football staffer who allegedly had a romantic relationship with fired head coach Sherrone Moore. The woman has served as Moore’s executive assistant.
“There is no change in her employment status,” a Michigan spokesman told Pakinomist.
The woman received a massive pay gap between 2024 and 2025.

The person allegedly linked to Moore, whose LinkedIn profile lists her as Executive Assistant to the Head Football Coach at the University of Michigan, earned just over $58,000 in 2023 and 2024, according to public salary information. In fiscal year 2025, however, her salary increased to $99,000, according to a salary information report from the University of Michigan.
During Moore’s arraignment Friday, prosecutors alleged he and the employee had been in an “intimate relationship for a number of years,” which they say the woman ended Monday. Prosecutors further allege that Moore sent multiple text messages and phone calls that prompted the woman to report the situation to the university and cooperate with its investigation.
Moore was released from jail Friday on $25,000 bail, according to police records obtained by Pakinomist Digital.
However, it is unclear about Moore will return home to his family.
Moore’s attorney, Joseph Simon, declined to say whether the coach will go home to his wife and three children while speaking to reporters in an Ann Arbor courthouse Friday.

“I’m just not going to answer that question,” Simon said when asked if Moore “will be able to go home.”
Moore has been married to wife Kelli since 2015 and they have three daughters together – Shiloh, Solei and Sadie. Simon also declined to comment on his client’s “mood” after Moore was charged.
Conditions of Moore’s release also require him to wear a GPS tether, continue mental health treatment and prohibit him from communicating with the victim.
Moore was fired Wednesday, and the University of Michigan quickly announced it found credible evidence of an “inappropriate relationship” with an employee. Moore was then detained by the police Wednesday after news of his firing broke.
Moore was arraigned Friday on stalking and home invasion charges. According to prosecutors, he faces a felony charge of third-degree home invasion and two misdemeanor charges of stalking and breaking and entering without the owner’s consent.
Both misdemeanor charges are related to a “domestic relationship.”

When Moore was fired from his position as a football coach, prosecutors said that prompted him to show up at the woman’s home.
Moore then allegedly “barged” his way into the residence, grabbed a butter knife and kitchen shears and began threatening his own life. According to prosecutors, Moore allegedly told the employee, “My blood is on your hands” and “You ruined my life.”
Prosecutors claimed that Moore “terrorized” the employee and that they believed he was a “public safety risk.”
