The University of Michigan has reportedly authorized an investigation into its athletic department amid the Sherrone Moore scandal. A source told ESPN on Saturday, December 13, that the school has hired Jenner & Block - a Chicago-based law firm - and that the investigation will focus on Moore's firing. The law firm has worked with the school in recent years, including an investigation regarding Moore and his staff's conduct in the fall after the school received an anonymous tip that Moore was involved in a relationship with a staffer.
