    Michigan dealt with a handful of issues last Saturday when it traveled to Washington to play in a rematch of last year’s national title game.

    The Wolverines started quarterback Alex Orji, but after being unable to move the ball on offense, he was benched for Jack Tuttle, who is now the third quarterback on the season.

    Tuttle wouldn’t make that much of a difference because Michigan would lose the game 27-17. The loss was the least of the worries of one Michigan staffer because a video on social media earlier this week showed Wolverines staffer Chris Bryant, the Director of High School Relations, going after Washington fans.

    Bryant told fans to “chill the (expletive) out before you get (expletive) up.” The video below contains strong language.

    Angelique S. Chengelis from the Detroit News reported on Tuesday, “Michigan athletics issued a statement Tuesday night to The Detroit News and said the incident is being handled internally by the football program.”

    “We became aware of an interaction between Washington fans who were harassing our players by using over the top and offensive language,” the statement reads. “It was an unfortunate situation and should not have happened.

    “Our staff member should have asked the stadium staff to handle the matter rather than act in the emotional manner with which he did at that time. This is disappointing and we will handle the matter internally as a program.”

    Michigan has no control over what is going on with its program at the moment, and it will only get worse throughout the season.

    The Wolverines football team is broken, and when coaches go after opposing fans, you know there is a lot of frustration going around. There is a great chance Michigan will see only six wins this season.

    The Michigan program Jim Harbaugh once coached is now done, and it’s up to new head coach Sherrone Moore to save it before it flies off the tracks.
