ESPN insider Adam Schefter, for his part, claimed that a recent investigation into Moore found "no evidence of wrongdoing" despite weeks of "whispers and speculations about various gossipy, salacious items with the school." He continued: "But, if the school is going to take a step on Wednesday that it did, and announce that it is firing Sherrone Moore for cause, and saying he had an inappropriate relationship with a staffer, then, clearly, something this week developed that the school felt like it had irrefutable evidence and was left with no other choice."
