Connor Stalions isn't off to a hot start with his new gig.

Last year, Stalions resigned from his role as a staffer for the Michigan football program after allegations surfaced he had stolen opponents' signs at games.

This year, he is the head football coach of Mumford High School in Detroit, and his debut did not go well.

Stalions and Mumford dropped their season opener to Redford Thurston, 47-6.

Social media was quick to throw its share of jabs at Stalions.

"I feel like there’s a joke in here somewhere," wrote one user on X.

"He found out you can’t buy tickets to HS games on Ticketmaster," another said.

Another wrote, "Give Connor time Mumford fans, once he finds out all their plays you guys will be cooking."

Earlier this month, Stalions had avoided the media during one of his team's practices.

Stalions remains at the center of an investigation into an alleged off-campus sign-stealing operation, which resulted in Michigan suspending him in October 2023 before he resigned from his position. An NCAA investigation also led to a three-game suspension for former head coach Jim Harbaugh during the team’s national championship run last season.
