Michigan Wolverines head coach Sherrone Moore had to have felt great about his chances of replacing Jim Harbaugh when the latter skipped town for another shot at a Lombardi Trophy with the NFL’s Los Angeles Chargers.
After all, Moore arguably had one of the best on-the-job interviews of all time in his four games as Michigan’s interim head coach this past season.
Covering for the suspended Harbaugh, Moore was 4-0 as Michigan’s head coach. He led Michigan to a win over Bowling Green in Week 3 and then carried the Wolverines through a three-game Big Ten gauntlet of No. 10 Penn State, Maryland and No. 2 Ohio State to end the season.
The Penn State and Maryland games were impressive wins because they came on the road, but it was that win over the rival Buckeyes in Ann Arbor that really sticks out for Moore now that he looks back on what he accomplished.
