A former football coach at the University of Michigan has escaped a stay in jail after pleading guilty to misdemeanor charges related to an altercation with a colleague.

The incidents in question involved a confrontation between Moore and his executive assistant, which led to the coach being charged with misdemeanor obstructing and resisting a police officer.
