NEED TO KNOWPaige Shiver spoke to Good Morning America following Sherrone Moore's sentencing on April 14
Shiver was Moore's former assistant at the University of Michigan, where he coached football
Moore was fired after administrators alleged he had engaged in an inappropriate relationship with a staffer
Paige Shiver, the former assistant of ex-University of Michigan head football coach Sherrone Moore, spoke out after he was sentenced to probation on April 14.
Moore was fired by the school on Dec. 10, 2025, after administrators alleged he had engaged in an inappropriate relationship with a staffer, who was later identified as Shiver.
Later that day, Moore was arrested after Shiver alleged that he'd driven to her home and threatened self-harm.
Moore ultimately pleaded no contest to two misdemeanors and was sentenced to 18 months of probation after the judge said he didn't believe incarceration was appropriate, though he warned that "all bets are off" if Moore violates the probation terms, PEOPLE previously reported.
Shiver has since spoken to ABC's Good Morning America in the aftermath of Moore's sentence. A preview of the interview, which is set to air Friday, April 24, was shared with PEOPLE.
"Here's a man that had complete control over me," Shiver told GMA. "Over my emotions, over my career. And he knew that and he used it against me."
Shiver claimed that whenever she tried to distance herself from Moore, he would always pull her back in.
"He always had a story, always had a way to pull me in and making me feel that I couldn't leave him because he was so miserable without me," she said.
Shiver identified herself after Moore reached a plea deal on counts of malicious use of a telecommunications device and trespass. More serious charges were dropped as part of the agreement.

Shiver's attorneys, Andrew M. Stroth and Steven A. Hart, criticized the sentence, saying that it "does not reflect the seriousness of Moore's unlawful entry and aggressive attack on Ms. Shiver on December 10th,” per a statement previously shared with PEOPLE.
Moore, who is married and has three children, became Michigan's head coach in 2024 and led the team for two seasons prior to his firing.
