Kathie Lee Gifford, who formerly co-hosted the fourth hour of "TODAY" for 11 years, suggested she'd get back in the saddle in a heartbeat if the show needed her amid Savannah Guthrie being off the air.

The woman accused of shooting at Rihanna's home on Sunday seems to have shared multiple videos making incoherent accusations concerning the singer ... even what will happen when Rihanna dies.

Sherrone Moore copped a plea deal in his criminal case, but he's not completely out of the woods -- Paige Shiver's attorney tells TMZ Sports the former Michigan football staffer is not ruling out suing the coach and the school.

Moore pleaded no contest to two misdemeanors last week ... with the three original charges, including felony home invasion, getting dropped.

Both Shiver and her lawyer, Andrew M. Stroth, expressed disappointment with the deal ... urging the University of Michigan to take accountability for its "painful missteps." Stroth also said Shiver endured years of harassment and manipulation, leaving her "pressured, intimidated, and unable to escape conduct that should never occur in any workplace -- let alone at a public university."

That said, a potential lawsuit against Moore and/or the U-M is not out of the question.

The prosecution cites "a number of conspiracy theories" that have already circulated, including unfounded accusations that Israel was behind the murder.

According to law enforcement sources, the suspect has been identified as 35-year-old Ivanna Lisette Ortiz.

A February 23 Facebook post from Ortiz's account reads ... "@badgalriri Are you there? Cause I was waiting for your AIDS 5-head self to say something to me directly instead of sneaking around like you talking to me where I'm not at."
