Dear Michigan Family,
Today, I speak from the heart—as your head coach, but more importantly, as a steward of one of the greatest traditions in college football. Being entrusted with this role is more than a professional milestone—it’s a calling. It is with immense gratitude and deep responsibility that I step into this chapter of our journey, one built on grit, unity, and excellence.
The program is more than a team—it’s a legacy. It’s the echoes of the Big House on fall Saturdays. To Tom Harmon, Charles Woodson, Desmond Howard. Also Bo’s voice declaring, “Those who stay will be champions.” And now, it is. It’s you and me, continuing that story—one forged in sacrifice, pride, and relentless pursuit of greatness.
And our players: you are the soul of Michigan Football. I’ve seen your work ethic, your resilience, your passion. I’ve walked beside you in victory and in adversity. I want you to know that I believe in every single one of you—not just as athletes, but as men. Together, we will demand greatness from ourselves, for this program, and for each other. We will honor the ‘Block M’ with everything we’ve got—every practice, every snap, every game.
To our fans: You are the heartbeat of Michigan. You show up in rain, in snow, through every high and low. You are more than spectators—you are family. Your love for this team, your unwavering belief in us, fuels everything we do. I promise you this: we will play with toughness, class, and integrity. We will earn your pride, not with words, but with action—week after week, year after year.
The entire Michigan community: Thank you for trusting me with something so sacred. I know what this university represents: tradition, excellence, leadership. That responsibility is never lost on me. I will work every day to reflect the values of this institution—in how I lead, how we develop our student-athletes, and how we represent the Block M across the country.
Yes this is a new era—but we are not rewriting the story. We are turning the page, building on a foundation laid by legends. And make no mistake—we are here to win. To compete for Big Ten titles. And fight for national championships. Also to mold leaders who leave this place better than they found it.
This isn’t just my journey. It’s ours. And together, we’ll make history.
Go Blue. Always.
With honor and resolve,
Sherrone Moore
Head Football Coach
University of Michigan
