Wow…what the hell happened here?
A Michigan Wolverines football staff member could face severe punishment for threatening to “fuck up” Washington fans.
Last weekend, Michigan suffered a major disaster. 27-17 loss They played against the Huskies in Seattle, improving their record to 4 wins and 2 losses on the season. The same goes for Washington. Now, since the game, a video has been circulating of a staff member approaching a Huskies fan and telling him, “You better calm down before you get upset.” (Related article: Tennessee’s Omari Thomas celebrates Arkansas fans with aggressive shooting after Razorbacks upset Volunteers)
The staff member was then identified as: kris bryantdirector of high school relations and former Wolverines player. And interestingly, his history on the official website has been cleaned up since the incident.
We reached out to the University of Michigan for comment, but did not receive a response as of press time. Check out the Daily Caller for the latest information.

This looks bad for Michigan, but Zach Shaw of CBS Sports and 247 Sports has a good point about Bryant.
Chris is in his 10th year on the University of Michigan staff. He has attended games at over 20 different road venues.
If he comes in front of the cameras like that and the fans in question react like that, my first question is I was told the anonymous Barstool account was leaked https://t.co/NgcLVHtddb

And this is why I reached out to Michigan State…If what the show is saying is true, we need to get to the bottom of what exactly the fans are telling us.
