Greg Scruggs resignation: Michigan HC Sherrone Moore drops first reaction to DL coach's unexpected move

The Michigan Wolverines have made many changes to their program since they won the national championship a few months ago. It was announced earlier today that defensive lineman coach Greg Scruggs has resigned, per Michigan head coach Sherrone Moore.

"I just received notice that Greg Scruggs has resigned his position, effective immediately," Moore said (via Chris Vannini on X). "I am unable to comment further as this is a University matter."

Scruggs was charged with operating a vehicle while intoxicated on Saturday, and the Ann Arbor Police Department arrested him on the same day after the field sobriety tests.

Scruggs was hired earlier this month after being with the Wisconsin Badgers in the same position. While it is unclear how Moore and the Michigan Wolverines will address the opening as they are in the Spring Practice portion of the year, it will be interesting to see how things wind up going forward.

What should we expect without Greg Scruggs for the Michigan Wolverines?

The Michigan Wolverines have been doing well despite all of the changes to the team, with Sherrone Moore taking over the coach when Jim Harbaugh left for the Los Angeles Chargers job. With a lot of players entering the 2024 NFL draft and doing well, there are going to be a significant amount of changes in their roster.

The expansion of the College Football Playoff this season opens the door for the Michigan Wolverines to make the national championship. They will likely be in the College Football Playoff this season and with the expansion of these Power Five conferences, they are going to be in contention.

With Greg Scruggs no longer with the Michigan Wolverines, this gives Moore a chance to make another splash.

What does the Michigan Wolverines schedule look like in 2024?

The Michigan State Wolverines have a tougher schedule this season than they did last season. This season will see a rematch of the 2024 National Championship Game against Washington, along with other significant games like a non-conference game against Texas.
