Show notes
Three timely stories to talk about today:
01:20 – Sherrone Moore Fired
- The University of Michigan and head football coach Sherrone Moore abruptly part ways after an internal investigation into an inappropriate relationship with a staffer, plus a separate assault probe in Washtenaw County.
- Jer and Fletcher dig into how this goes far beyond wins and losses: the impact on recruits, assistants, and a program still reeling from recent scandals.
- They also explore how boosters, fans, and parents might see Moore differently after this, and what it means for Michigan's near-term future on and off the field.
09:57 – Leland House Power Cut
- Detroit's historic Leland House goes dark after a fire marshal–ordered evacuation, with DTE and ownership pointing fingers over damaged equipment and unpaid bills.
- The conversation widens to what happens when iconic Detroit buildings fall into limbo—and how quickly "troubled" can turn into "too far gone."
15:19 – Kronk Gym Returning to Detroit
- Some good news: Kronk Gym is back inside Detroit city limits at a new home on Wilkins, not far from where legends once trained.
- The revived gym blends big-name boxing alumni with youth programming, fitness classes and a renewed community mission.
- Fletcher shares personal memories of the old Kronk and why hearing "hailing from Detroit, Michigan, out of Kronk Gym" still hits different for the city.
