Who is Paige Shiver?
Paige Shiver is an employee at the University of Michigan who is currently speculated to be in the Moore “inappropriate relations” case.
Shiver was promoted to executive assistant to the head football coach in 2024. Shiver joined the University of Michigan’s athletic department around 2022, initially working in a support capacity before being elevated to a more senior role in 2024.
As the executive assistant, she would have handled scheduling, internal coordination, and significant behind-the-scenes responsibilities within the football program that brought her into regular contact with Moore and other staff.
After the news of Moore’s firing broke, Shiver’s Instagram account was reportedly made private, and her LinkedIn and X accounts were deactivated shortly. These gave even more reason for speculation of her involvement with Moore.
