Sherrone Moore’s Affair Ends Badly

Sherrone Moore had everything. A top job as a football coach at the University of Michigan. A loving wife and three daughters. And then it blew up spectacularly after a two-year affair with a staffer.
***
Many of you have sent me articles about the University of Michigan coach Sherrone Moore being fired from his job for having a workplace affair with a staffer. I didn’t really know how to approach it. No egregious non-apology apologies to decipher. No lurid Jesus cheating. I’m not cynical (or interested in football enough) to speculate, as some have, that Moore was fired because the team lost to Ohio State. Nope.
Just another stupid man with a double life.
Well, Tracy, he allegedly attacked his affair partner with a butter knife.
Okay, that’s an interesting domestic violence flourish. But also kind of baffling. If you’re going to open the kitchen drawers to find a weapon, why grab a butter knife? You might as well menace someone with a seafood fork. It seems a bit pathetic.
Honestly the whole story is pathetic. Another cheater who has every blessing — a beautiful partner, three healthy children, a dream job — who flushes it all away. Who got greedy. That wasn’t ENOUGH. Moore needed more.
Former University of Michigan head football coach Sherrone Moore loved to gush about his wife, Kelli Moore, before allegations of an “inappropriate relationship” with a staff member led to his downfall.
Sherrone, 39, and Kelli got married in 2015 and share three daughters: Shiloh, born in 2019, Solei, born in 2022, and Sadie, born earlier this year.
Beware the gushers.
“Happy three year anniversary to my life partner and best friend,” Sherrone wrote via Instagram in July 2018. “So proud of you and all your accomplishments. I am so happy and blessed beyond measure to call you my wife as the man upstairs leads us to live through him. Love you soo much and excited about what the future holds for us!”
The future holds home invasion charges for attacking your fuckbuddy. #blessed
Months prior to that, Sherrone celebrated Kelli’s birthday with a collage of photos from their life together.
“Happy Birthday to the most beautiful, caring, intelligent, selfless woman in the world!” Sherrone shared via Instagram. “I am so blessed to be able to call her my wife and best friend! I am so proud of all you have done and can’t wait for what the future holds! You motivate me to be the best I can be with a smile on my face everyday!”
He continued, “Thank you and hope this birthday is the best one so far! I love you @klenzmoore ! Have a wonderful day!”
Anyone else notice how oddly similar each of these over-the-top messages is? Unoriginality being a kind of a FW calling card. He probably texted his Schmoopie the same “can’t wait for what the future holds!” bullshit. (Me threatening you with a butter knife! #bebest)
Poor Kelli Moore
Kelli responded in the comments, telling her husband, “I’ll never know how I got so blessed to be your wife. But I thank God every day for you. I love you SO much!! Thank you for making my birthday/birthday weekend so amazing. You’re the best.”
Yes, Kelli, while you’re publicly praising your husband for being The Best, he’s having a two-year affair with a subordinate risking your health, financial future, and children’s intact home.
Raise your hand, CN, if you unknowingly praised your FW while being chumped. Oh, is that all of you?
Sherrone sent holiday wishes to his followers in December 2017, sharing a picture of himself, Kelli and their dog.
“Merry Christmas from our family to yours!!” he wrote via Instagram. “Hope everyone has blessed holidays! 🎄🎄”
Sherrone’s first-ever Instagram post came two days before that, celebrating the anniversary of his proposal to Kelli.
“3 years ago today I made the best decision of my life to ask this beautiful woman @klenzmoore to be my wife!” Sherrone shared. “She is my life partner, rock & my best friend! I love you!”
He added the hashtag “#marriedanangel” to his post.
#divorcingaFW is what I hope the future holds.
Speaking of unoriginal cheater story lines. I’m sure none of you will be surprised to learn that Moore blames his affair partner for his wandering dick.
‘You ruined my life.’
A woman who recently ended an approximately two-year affair with ex-Michigan football coach Sherrone Moore told law enforcement he grabbed butter knives from a drawer and pointed them at her after barging into her apartment, recently obtained court records show.
Details from the statements made by the woman, an executive assistant to the head coach, were used Friday to charge Moore. He was charged with third-degree felony home invasion, misdemeanor stalking and misdemeanor breaking and entering.
“(The woman) advised that she was carrying her belongings downstairs to leave, and while inside of her apartment she heard footsteps outside. (She) indicated that she ran towards the door to secure it, but before she could, Mr. Moore swung the door open and barged into her apartment with tears in his eyes,” the court document reads.
“(The woman) indicated that she was approximately 5 feet from the door when he made entry. She advised that she began backing up and as he was approaching her. (She) advised that Moore grabbed two knives out of her drawer and pointed them at her, ‘You ruined my life. You ruined my life.’”
Sherrone Moore — you ruined your own life. The tragedy isn’t your lost job, life’s potential, or the Ohio State loss — it’s that you ruined your family’s life. And they didn’t deserve it.

What was his wife’s response? I have a feeling she is going to believe him, she has been seen out walking the baby with him. Maybe he wrote her a love note…..blaming the OW for it all.
Tabloids say she was just with him at his lawyer’s office, but take that with a grain of salt.
I hope she’s talking to her own lawyer and planning an exit. I’m concerned for her safety and that of her kids, given how unhinged this guy is.
The ex I just divorced blamed the OW for pursuing him. He’s 57 with a medical degree. She’s 32, high school drop out, alcoholic, worked in our business as a kennel cleaner and was a friend of our son.
Who had the power here???
These men are delusional, entitled and pathetic. So are the women they cheat with.
They want young it isn’t any more complicated than that.
Well while he is blaming AP, Moore forgot to mention shipping Plan B to his Univ office….🧐supposedly how Michigan began investigating him. Or that he DOUBLED AP salary ~50K to 100K in a year.But sure – he’s the victim. 🤬
Never heard of him, so looked him up. In addition to his affair with his subordinate, a woman from Only Fans came forward to claim he was sexting her during important games, including one when his team lost, and alleging that he offered her and two other Only Fans women season tickets for a hotel foursome. She claims he deleted his texts but she saved hers and is trying to sell them to TMZ.
Several stories I read speculated that his wife is standing by him due to shock, for the sake of the children, or because he threatened to off himself. Stories vary about whether or not he grabbed scissors as well as the butter knives. One said he threatened the ex-AP with a butter knife, while others state he threatened to use butter knives on himself and supposedly told his ex- AP that his blood would be on her hands. It does appear that he was fired because she reported him, although their affair reportedly was consensual.
Although some butter knives are serrated, there are certainly sharper and better options if it was a serious attempt at anything other than making himself out to be the victim to his AP, his wife, or the larger world.
Am I the only one who looked at the photo at the beginning of CL’s piece and thought that the dog didn’t look to be at all happy about being roped into what is, in hindsight, quite clearly performative image management? .
LFTT
That’s Huskies for you.
Nope. I noticed the same thing. I also suspected that he wanted the dog because huskies are beautiful, but the wife is stuck dealing with all the husky difficulty and drama.
It’s a beautiful looking dog, but it looks like it would rather be anywhere but there.
LFTT
omg ! The husky in that photo looks like he already knows what is going on.
That is the face that says, “girl, run!”
I’m a Michigan football fan (my dad was an alumni and we lived in Chelsea) and heard about it as it broke. While I was recovering from the loss to Ohio State, who are currently having a social media schadenfreudelicious field day with the news. Thanks for that too, asshat.
I read through Sherrone Moore’s Instagram…it has since been taken down. He described himself as “husband” and “follower of Christ” in his bio. (There’s the Jesus Cheater element). Total bullsh*t hypocritical posts dispensing Vince Lombardyish advice about life and courage and leadership and honor on and off the field. Blah blah blah.
He had one of the most prestigious jobs in sports, a 30M contract, a beautiful wife, three beautiful daughters, a beautiful home. Don’t anyone ever try to tell me that cheating is about unhappiness ever again. He had to have side pieces to fill out his Having It All scorecard.
Cherry on top…..his co-conspirator ruined HIS life?!
For the first time in my life I feel embarrassed and self-conscious about wearing my U of M apparel.
JFC, is it really that hard to find someone who walks their talk about integrity?!
(I adore James Talarico)
Hey Blue, next time hire someone who’s a winner on and off the field, someone who genuinely lives the idea of the Michigan Man.
💛💙😪💙 💛
Thank you for saying cheating is not about unhappiness. That was the No. 1 reason my husband gave. It’s just . . . . tiresome. It does seem more and more difficult to find people with true integrity.
Mine, too.
He praised her as “selfless.” Eeek.
Not only did I praise Cheaty McLiarface, I defended him against any and all who would dare speak a negative word about him. He repaid my loyalty with flirtations, infatuations, and an affair that he installed in our marriage for sixteen of our thirty seven years. I understand now that when he praised me to others it was meant to manipulate. What better way to deflect suspicion and maintain your “good husband” image than by praising your wife to others.
In the middle of another one of Cheaty’s denial fests, I asked what it was that he liked about me. After a long pause he said that I was a good mother and housekeeper. In that moment I knew that I had never been loved by him. I had served him as a dependable wife appliance making him look good to others and feel better about himself.
They are all selfish, petty, calculated, transactional little beings at their core.
Cheaty reminds me of another cheater I knew. I met this couple at church and the husband was ALWAYS full of praise for his wife. I later learned that he was a huge, serial cheater.
💯!
What a mess, as always. They’re so full of themselves that they can’t begin to manage the chaos as it all falls apart. I googled just a little for context, and reportedly, he was indeed a Jesus cheater and was suicidal once he was exposed.
Boy, sounds familiar to me as mine all went down. My STBX was so unstable late in the negotiations that his own attorney reportedly was planning to call the police where my then-husband lived to do a mental health check, and my attorney was talking about different paths of strategy in case he attempted or continued to threaten to take his own life. He also encouraged me to be very wary of answering the door in case my STBX showed up and to be mindful if I left the house.
Well, we got it settled in a wild flourish, but that was a concerning time. Thankfully, I haven’t heard from my ex in years now.
