The University of Michigan staff member with whom ex-football coach Sherrone Moore had a roughly two-year affair − and whose home prosecutors say Moore broke into after he was fired − is no longer employed by the university.
U-M football program spokesman Dave Ablauf said her contract expired and was not renewed. He did not provide additional details.
Her contract expired Feb. 28, 2026, according to a copy of her personnel file obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request.
The Free Press generally does not identify people described as domestic crime victims without their consent. She and her lawyer have not responded to previous requests for comment.
Moore, 40, was fired on Dec. 10 after the university said he had an inappropriate relationship with a staff member and lied about it. According to police, the woman with whom he had the affair went to the university the same week Moore was fired and provided details about the relationship.
The same day he was fired, Moore allegedly went to the woman’s apartment. Washtenaw County prosecutors say he barged in, grabbed two butter knives and backed the woman into a corner. He left the apartment, but also told the woman he would kill himself and said his blood was on her hands, prosecutors said.
Moore was arrested within hours of leaving the apartment. He was later charged with third degree felony home invasion, misdemeanor stalking and misdemeanor breaking and entering. His lawyer says he is innocent and the truth will come out in court.
The woman joined the U-M athletic department as an assistant in late 2021, according to her personnel file. In the beginning of her tenure, she earned $55,000 a year, with the chance for bonuses. But in the spring of 2025, she was promoted to executive assistant to the head football coach, getting a pay raise to $99,000 a year, records show.
By then, she and Moore were already in a relationship, according to statements both reportedly made to police.
Moore is due back in court Friday, March 6 for an evidentiary hearing.
