Former Michigan staffer says Sherrone Moore had 'complete control over me'
Paige Shiver, Moore's former executive assistant, spoke about the relationship with ABC News in her first interview since Moore's firing and arrest after he allegedly broke into her home and threatened her.
"Here's a man that had complete control over me, over my emotions, over my career, and he knew that, and he used it. He used it against me," Shiver said in a clip shared by ESPN on Thursday, April 23.
"Every time I tried to pull away, every time I tried to try and get out of even Michigan, he always had a story. Always had a way to pull me in and making me feel that I couldn't leave him because he was so miserable without me," she added.
Shiver's comments were part of a full interview that will air on "Good Morning America" on Friday, April 24.
Moore was fired by Michigan on Dec. 10 after a university investigation found he engaged in an "inappropriate relationship" with a staff member. Less than hour before he was officially fired, police near Ann Arbor responded to an incident "for the purposes of investigating an alleged assault."
There, he allegedly barged his way into Shiver's home and threatened to harm himself before leaving. Authorities arrived afterward but he was later arrested and booked into jail the same night. Moore was then charged with felony count of home invasion, but he eventually reached a plea deal on March 6, pleading no contest to malicious use of a telecommunications device and one count of trespass, both misdemeanor charges.

On April 14, Moore was sentenced to 18 months of probation. He can have no contact with Shiver. He must also pay court fines totaling over $1,000 and continue mental health treatment, in addition to no use of alcohol or recreational marijuana.
After the sentencing, Shiver's attorneys said in a written statement from her the punishment did not "reflect the harm done to me or the objective evidence in this case."
Shiver is no longer employed by the university, as Michigan football program spokesman Dave Ablauf said her contract expired and was not renewed. Her contract expired on Feb. 28, 2026, according to a copy of her personnel file obtained by the Detroit Free Press through a Freedom of Information Act request.
