Woah … what on earth happened here?
A Michigan Wolverines football staffer is potentially facing severe punishment after he was caught on video appearing to threaten to get a Washington fan “f*cked up.”
Last weekend, Michigan suffered a 27-17 defeat against the Huskies while visiting them in Seattle, bringing them to 4-2 on the season — ditto for Washington. Well, since the game, a video has been circulating of a staffer walking up to a Huskies fan. “You better chill the f*ck out before you get f*cked up,” he appears to say to the fan.

That staffer has since been identified as Chris Bryant, the director of high school relations and ex-player for the Wolverines. And interestingly, his bio on their official website has been washed clean since the incident.
I made contact with the University of Michigan for comment, and as of publication, no response was given. Stay tuned to the Daily Caller for updates.

Though this looks bad for Michigan, CBS Sports’ and 247Sports’ Zach Shaw makes a good point when it comes to Bryant.
Chris is in his 10th year on Michigan’s staff. He’s been on the sidelines of more than 20 different road venues
If he’s coming over like that on camera, and the fans in question react like that, my first question is what was said that the anonymous barstool account left out https://t.co/NgcLVHtddb

And this is why I reached out to Michigan … if what Shaw is saying is true, we need to get to the bottom of what may have been said by the fan.
