BREAKING: Sherrone Moore announced as next Michigan football head coach

Just two days after Jim Harbaugh took the head coaching job with the Los Angeles Chargers, the Michigan Wolverines have their new man.

Offensive coordinator and offensive line coach Sherrone Moore has officially been named the Michigan football program’s 21st-ever head coach, the university confirmed the news Friday evening. Moore is also the very first African American head coach at the University of Michigan.

“I want to thank Coach Harbaugh for the faith that he has displayed in me over the past six years and for supporting my growth as a football coach during that time,” Moore said in a press release.
