Michigan has named Biff Poggi as the interim head coach during Sherrone Moore's upcoming two-game suspension.
The Wolverines' associate head coach will run the show on Saturday at home against Central Michigan and on Sept. 20 at Nebraska as well as the period between those two games, Moore announced on Monday.
Poggi, 66, was the head coach at Charlotte from 2023-24 (6-16 record) before being fired last November with two games left on the schedule.
Poggi previously was on the Michigan staff as an analyst in 2016 and as associate head coach under Jim Harbaugh from 2021-22.
Moore's ban was part of the NCAA infractions handed down last month in the wake of a sign-stealing scandal that took place during the 2023 national championship season, when he was Harbaugh's offensive coordinator.
Moore, whose suspension officially begins Saturday, will return to the sidelines for an Oct. 4 date with Wisconsin in Ann Arbor, Mich.
Moore has also been suspended for the 2026 season opener, although Michigan has appealed that punishment.
Michigan (1-1) fell eight spots to No. 23 in the AP poll Monday after a 24-13 loss at then-No. 18 Oklahoma last Saturday following a season-opening win against New Mexico.
