Francis Xavier Poggi
Francis Xavier 'Biff' Poggi is an American football coach known for his recent appointment as the interim head coach of the University of Michigan Wolverines football team. He stepped into this role following the dismissal of Sherrone Moore due to an inappropriate relationship with a staff member. Poggi previously served as a head coach at the high school level and has been part of the Michigan coaching staff, where he temporarily took over for Moore during a suspension earlier in the season related to a sign-stealing scandal. His experience and leadership will be crucial as he leads the team into the Citrus Bowl against Texas.
