Meanwhile, the university in a statement said, "U-M head football coach Sherrone Moore has been terminated, with cause, effective immediately,” Michigan University said in a statement on Wednesday. “Following a University investigation, credible evidence was found that Coach Moore engaged in an inappropriate relationship with a staff member.”

“This conduct constitutes a clear violation of University policy, and U-M maintains zero tolerance for such behavior. Biff Poggi has been appointed head football coach in an interim capacity, effective immediately,” they added.

What Charles Woodson said

Woodson, the former cornerback appeared stunned in his X post. “Life be lifing don’t it,” he remarked.

Others commented on Woodson's post, saying “Man he was out of pocket he learned today pro.” Another added, “Please o great one, come home and coach Michigan. Coach your son and Marcus Ray’s son too.” Yet another commented, “An understatement.”

While many fans seem to want Woodson to return, Michigan have promoted Biff Poggi to interim manager for now. Michigan's next big game and Poggi's first as HC will be the Citrus Bowl matchup on December 31, where they take on Steve Sarkisian and Arch Manning’s Texas Longhorns in the Florida matchup.

Woodson is not the only one with a cryptic post after Moore's firing. Legendary NFL player and current Colorado coach Deion Sanders also had a three-word message in the wake of the Michigan fiasco today.
