8 Candidates to Replace Sherrone Moore at Michigan, Including Kalen DeBoer

Kalen DeBoer is favored due to his strong coaching record and a $4 million buyout, making him a feasible top candidate for Michigan's coaching vacancy.

  • On Wednesday, Alabama head coach Kalen DeBoer was linked to Michigan's head-coach search just hours after the University of Michigan fired Sherrone Moore following an inappropriate-relationship investigation.
  • Sherrone Moore was detained by police in Saline, Michigan, then turned over to Pittsfield Township; his tenure ended after less than two years following Jim Harbaugh's departure.
  • DeBoer went 9-4 in his first season and 10-3 this year with Alabama Crimson Tide, and AL.com reports his buyout is only $4,000,000, making a move feasible.
  • Athletic director Warde Manuel must now lead a new direction for Michigan amid a slowing coaching carousel, while Biff Poggi will serve as interim head coach for the Dec. 31 Citrus Bowl.
  • ESPN analyst Dan Orlovsky said Michigan Wolverines 'has to make Kalen DeBoer its next head coach' and added contract extensions shouldn't deter the program, noting DeBoer accepted Alabama before Michigan entered the market.
