Connor Stalions has somehow landed on his feet and gotten a new job in sports.
Former Michigan staffer Connor Stalions, who gained national attention in 223 as the apparent mastermind in Michigan’s alleged sign-stealing scandal, has joined Detroit Mumford High School’s coaching staff as defensive coordinator, team coach William McMichael told the Detroit News.
You read that correctly. Stalions stole signs and still found a job in the sport.
“I got the most hated man in college football right now, Connor Stalions,” Mumford head coach William McMichael told the Detroit News. “He’s my defensive coordinator.”
Stalions, the former Michigan staffer at the center of the NCAA’s sign-stealing investigation, will reportedly return to the sidelines this season with his new squad.
Stalions has been without a job ever since he resigned as a Wolverines offensive analyst in November after news of the scandal broke and was named prominently in a draft of an NCAA Letter of Inquiry that recently went public.
Despite the talks surrounding him, Stalions has not been officially sanctioned by the NCAA, but he is likely to be punished after being accused of failing to cooperate in the investigation.
