Sharon is 1-5 on the road as the head coach, his one road win was by 3 points and his 5 losses on the road are by an average of 11.6 points- basically 12 points per game- basically losing by 2 TD's per game whenever he goes on the road. this is absolutely pathetic and should be alarming to everyone. tells me he has no clue how to get his team prepared and ready for road trips.

Time to sound the fire alarm. Sharon Moore has to go.
C'mon at least wait'll he gets his guys

I said at the time, Michigan had just hired their Bobby Williams.  Promoted the really popular assistant to follow the great head coach for the short term goal of holding together the roster, but the dude was in way over his head

I think Sherrone's more than holding his own and should rightfully be given and an extension and some respekt

and you are 100% correct. that's a great comparison. Harbaugh left so late that they didn't have time to do a real search if they wanted to keep their incoming recruiting class together and their roster intact. if they didn't hire him they would've ran the risk of having a lot of high quality guys like Mason Graham, Colston Loveland, Will Johnson, and Kenneth Grant hitting the portal and of their incoming 2024 class falling apart at the seams.

people gave him a pass last year because he didn't have a QB- but he's showing this year he's not ready either- and Michigan isn't the type of job where you can just learn on the fly. And Bryce Underwood is too talented of a QB to waste with a coach who has no idea what he's doing.

buyout is cheap, get rid of him at seasons end and go get a real coach.

I'm fine with coach Moore, much less so with DC Wink Martindale.  This was never going to be the year so it's way early for cliff diving.

Tim Brando had been talking mad smack about Michigan program and the culture of the program having problems under Sherrone Moore all off-season citing sources close to the program.

he does play by play for CFB games with Devin Gardner for Fox Sports. Everyone assumed it was Gardner talking to Brando, well this quote from Devin Gardner in a podcast he does with Jake Butt pretty much confirms it.

"Sherrone's kind of arrogance and at some points, kind of front runner attitude... is bleeding onto his players and his freshman quarterback."

I'm trying not to be here, but I'm here. I think making it too simplistic saying he needs time to get his players in the system is ignoring the underlying and glaring red flags.. Going for 2 when you score and were down 17? Absolutely no adjustments in game planning at halftime? Clearly not utilizing players the right way? Bryce Underwood is the easy example that everyone is stuck on, but Semaj Morgan continuing to be a focal point as a receiver and punt returner when he drops more balls than Time Square. The insistence on running up the middle on first and second down over and over and over. The fact that the team looked better during his suspended games. Easy argument that of course the team looked better against Central Michigan, but they sure as heck looked better against a solid Nebraska team without Moore. 

This isn't a wait for him to build his system and fill his guys type of situation. It's a this guy is doing some very basic things wrong and not seeing glaring adjustments that should be made. It's not good. The other flag is players in the trenches seemed to have taken a step back on both sides of the ball.. Of course the D-line I'm not surprised because of the loss of talent to the NFL draft, but what's the excuse for the o-line? Only one i can deem reasonable is the offensive, obvious play calling that defenses can easily see what's coming.

There's a reality Michigan fans should come to. The staff is a problem and it's not too soon to have an uneasy feeling. And as much as most don't want to admit or acknowledge it, they should sit back and know the outcome of this season won't be pretty and they should be ready to watch OSU defend their title as repeat champs. That team is crazy talented on both sides of the ball. Their defense is special and reminds me of watching the 2023 Michigan team where the stars just know how to step up in key situations to make huge plays. Their receivers, even though every year the last 6-7 I've had arguments with my buddies there's no way the OSU group this year could get better than years past, which how is that possible when you're replacing Wilson, Egbuka, Marvin and on and on, but holy lord Jeremiah Smith and Carnell Tate is an insane duo. It's a year to swallow pride, get ready for defeat and watch in awe of a team that's seriously crazy talented that repeat.

Lol. For the record, my statement was a jinx reverse jinx thing. It’s like watching Saban Bama team back in their prime. Sometimes you have to just acknowledge elite talent and loaded teams.

Michigan is at a crossroad right now! What do you think they need to do to right the ship?


AH! In the comment section:
"Rehire Connor Stallions"

"Have the NCAA suspend Moore for the rest of season and roll with Biff...."

"Ask Larry Ellison hey, you wanna show up Phil Knight?"
