The sports world was surprised at the sudden termination of Michigan head coach Sherrone Moore on Wednesday, 10 December. The Michigan Athletic Director, Warde Manuel, announced that he was 'terminated, with cause, effective immediately' after they found 'credible evidence' that he 'engaged in an inappropriate relationship with a staff member,' who was later identified as Paige Shiver.
Netizens, however, were not convinced by the reports they read, and some speculated that there was a deliberate plot to fire Moore, with Shiver as an accomplice. There's a theory that the university wanted to cut ties with Moore to save millions of dollars from his coaching buyout.
