Moore has spent February filling out his staff and is now looking to focus on continuing the momentum off of three consecutive Big Ten Championships and a National Championship.
“I have been preparing my entire coaching career for this opportunity and I can’t think of a better place to be head coach than at the University of Michigan,” Moore said at his introductory press conference. “We will do everything each day as a TEAM to continue the legacy of championship football that has been played at Michigan for the past 144 years. Our standards will not change. We will be a smart, tough, dependable, relentless, and enthusiastic championship-level team that loves football and plays with passion for the game, the winged helmet and each other. We will also continue to achieve excellence off the field, in the classroom and in our communities. I am excited to start working in this new role with our players, coaches and staff
In the video embedded above, Michigan head coach Sherrone Moore discusses the Wolverines’ rivalry with Ohio State going forward.
Michigan will enter the 2024 offseason in major transition mode after Jim Harbaugh finally departed Ann Arbor for the NFL. Harbaugh will lead the Los Angeles Chargers next year after flirting with pro prospects for at least the last three offseason.
His replacement is none other than offensive line coach/offensive coordinator Sherrone Moore, who appeared to emerge as an understudy of sorts for Harbaugh as he coached the Wolverines for four games in which Harbaugh was suspended this season, including wins over Penn State and Ohio State.
The Wolverines face a difficult schedule in 2024 as they will host Texas, Oregon and USC while traveling to Washington and Ohio State among others.
