The Athletic has new reporting out that Moore seemingly was becoming increasingly unhinged and had, at the very least, issues pertaining to poor judgment that others were aware of.  Below are some excerpts.  Check out the entire article if you can:

ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Five women contacted by The Athletic said they had strange or uncomfortable exchanges with former Michigan football coach Sherrone Moore on Instagram as recently as last month and dating as far back as 2020.

One woman said she received a hand-waving emoji from Moore a few hours before Michigan kicked off against Purdue on Nov. 1.

The woman who received the message had no connection to the Michigan football program and wasn’t sure why Moore would be sending her direct messages. She responded with a hello.

Moore’s next message popped up roughly 20 minutes after Moore finished his postgame news conference. The Wolverines that night narrowly beat the last-place Boilermakers 21-16. The woman, incredulous that Michigan’s head coach would be messaging her on a game day, initially believed it to be a fake account. Once Moore assured her it was not, she congratulated him on that night’s win.

The woman did not respond the next time he engaged with her on Instagram two days later, when he left a fire emoji on a story she posted of herself on a stairmaster at the gym. In the days following their initial conversation, she discovered he was married with kids. She was mystified that he had the time to be scrolling through social media when he had a team to prepare.

“What is he doing?” she wondered. “Sitting in the bathroom?”

Those interactions shed light on Moore’s behind-the-scenes behavior as his two-year tenure as Michigan’s head coach neared its disastrous end. Michigan fired Moore for cause Dec. 10, alleging “credible evidence” that he engaged in an inappropriate relationship with a female staff member.

The Athletic spoke with more than 20 people, including current and former staff members, players, school officials and women who interacted with Moore on social media, on the condition of anonymity so they could speak candidly about Moore. They paint a picture of a coach who became increasingly volatile before his firing and subsequent arrest and arraignment on felony and misdemeanor charges for alleged crimes against the staffer.

Moore would break down sobbing in staff meetings and lash out at other coaches, according to three program sources who witnessed the behavior. He was seen eavesdropping on closed-door meetings inside Schembechler Hall, one of those people said, and fellow staff members became concerned about his mental state.

Moore’s online interactions with women were raised to university officials by fall 2024, early in his first season as head coach, two people briefed on the matter said. The behavior shared with school officials wasn’t criminal and didn’t involve university employees, the two people said, but it raised red flags about his poor judgment and lack of discretion.

“It was not sexual harassment,” said one of those officials. “It was propriety, ‘Are you an idiot?’ kind of stuff.”

One woman with whom he shared mutual connections provided messages the two exchanged after he asked her if he could fly her to come see him (she does not live in Michigan). She asked him why he’d do that and whether he had considered the potential ramifications of a relationship. If she visited, would she need to avoid being seen in public? Would he expect her to be “holed up in some hotel?”

“I guess we will have to see ! I would say yes but you would also have a driver haha.”

“We will go into that detail later,” he wrote.

When the woman asked how many women he had propositioned similarly, he responded: “none.”
