University of Michigan officials probed ousted football coach Sherrone Moore three times over his alleged conduct with women before the ax dropped Wednesday, according to a report.
Moore was sent packing from his highly coveted job leading the storied program over an “inappropriate relationship” with a staffer, according to the school’s athletic department.
The sudden dismissal comes as questions swirl over what athletic department leaders knew about Moore’s alleged actions, but a source told CBS Detroit that the most recent probe was the third one connected to Moore and women.
It’s unclear when the other investigations took place.
Moore has led the program for two years, but was on staff for about eight years.
Moore was taken into custody within hours of his firing after he allegedly burst into his executive assistant’s home with a knife and was reported suicidal by his wife, according to audio obtained by news outlets.
He remains in custody Friday with officials expected to determine whether and with what they’ll charge Moore.
