Michigan plans to suspend football coach Sherrone Moore for two games as part of its self-imposed sanctions in the 2023 advanced scouting scandal, ESPN reported Monday.

Moore will reportedly miss the Wolverines’ third and fourth games this season: Sept. 13 at home against Central Michigan, and the Sept. 20 Big Ten opener at Nebraska.

Michigan opens the season against New Mexico in Ann Arbor on Aug. 30 before playing at Oklahoma — Moore’s alma mater — on Sept. 6.

Moore was the Wolverines’ offensive coordinator in 2023 when former Michigan staffer Connor Stalions allegedly operated a sign-stealing scheme by having friends and family attend the games of future opponents and videotape sideline signals.

Per ESPN, Moore’s suspension is tied to allegations that he deleted a thread of more than 50 text messages with Stalions in October 2023.

The NCAA cited Michigan for 11 violations in an August 2024 notice of allegations, including six Level I (the most serious) violations. The school and the NCAA are still working on a final resolution of the matter.

Moore, 39, succeeded Jim Harbaugh and guided the Wolverines to an 8-5 record (5-4 Big Ten) last season, ending with a 19-13 win against Alabama in the ReliaQuest Bowl on Dec. 31.
