The Internet Roasts Sherrone Moore As Deleted Texts & More New Details Emerge From Michigan Sign Stealing Scandal

Just because Jim Harbaugh left Michigan to coach the Los Angeles Chargers doesn't mean the Wolverines are out of the woods yet. Even though Harbaugh served multiple suspensions last season related to the Connor Stalions-led sign stealing scandal — which Harbaugh claimed to have had no knowledge of — his successor Sherrone Moore might be in even more trouble. A draft of allegations obtained by ESPN from the NCAA's investigation into Michigan's football program has some pretty grisly details on Moore's end, including fifty-two deleted texts between him and Stalions. https://twitter.com/tSilverBulletin/status/1820139083106332766 https://twitter.com/tSilverBulletin/status/1820140431889535203 Among the coaches who are believed to have committed the most egregious NCAA violations (known as Level 1) are Harbaugh, Stalions, fired defensive assistant Chris Partridge, and ex-Wolverines quarterback/departed assistant personnel director Denard Robinson. So really, the only person of any immediate consequence to Michigan's program who could face disciplinary action is Moore at this point. As if the task of being successor to Harbaugh wasn't going to be hard enough, Moore looks like he could start his proper full-time tenure behind the 8-ball in a big way. And nobody on the hellscape of X/Twitter has any sympathy for him or for Michigan in general. https://twitter.com/intrinsicvalyou/status/1820135115944755425 https://twitter.com/klsmd12/status/1820136063060390043 https://twitter.com/OlaveSZN12/status/1820158869957701663 https://twitter.com/TheMainLinePod/status/1820158923363815712 https://twitter.com/BCSNostalgia/status/1820140496125329741 https://twitter.com/BenScottStevens/status/1820134550170907104 https://twitter.com/Bry_Mac/status/1820135309327376525 https://twitter.com/CleBuckeye23/status/1820140462021472664 https://twitter.com/MattFontana83/status/1820150754289803758 https://twitter.com/MattFinkes/status/1820136477491101988 The Wolverines lost a ton of talent to the NFL, and have their work cut out to keep their high-standard culture of perennial national title contention intact in the post-Harbaugh era. Not that I doubt Moore's football acumen. He kept Michigan's perfect season alive last year and ultimately played a key role in helping them to a national championship. However, the more findings that surface from this sign stealing investigation, the weirder it gets and the noisier the negative buzz around the program becomes. I have my doubts that Moore will face some lengthy suspension, or that the Wolverines' national championship will be vacated. Whatever happens going forward on the field, they'll be the most scrutinized team in the country. It won't just be obnoxious bitter rival Ohio State or little-brother Michigan State fans piling on. It'll be everyone else, too, until this blows over. Not much else to say. I thought this story was finished. It just won't die. Dear Michigan, please don't allegedly steal signs again so that we can move on with our lives.
