Elysee Mbem-Bosse disturbing tweets
[ED-Seth: Cleaned up this thread a bit. If it gets out of hand we'll lock it.]
Mbem-Bosse appeared to have lost his mind on Twitter last night and started posting some pretty crazy things that have now since been deleted. Does anyone know what they were referring to? I've only been able to find the following tweets but supposedly there were quite a few before this that were pointed directly at Michigan. Anyone know what's going on?
Edit: thanks to a poster below I was able to find them all. They are more disturbing than I thought. They are directed at Harbaugh and seem to be Threats of gun violence.
Edit 2: looks like the police are investigating https://www.detroitnews.com/story/sports/college/university-michigan/20…
Good Night I'm assuming
And was shown in the Amazon series at some point. That does not seem consistent with cleaning out the locker before the season started.
He's been off the team for months lol
Sounds like somebody trying to get back on the team...
Where do you see choice words about Al Washington? "Ask him about me"? yeah that tells us nothing

In the movies showing this kind of moxy does often earn some grudging respect. Just another example of movies steering me in the wrong direction.
Maybe they are directed at Devin Bush Jr for continually putting him on his ass in drills.
Drew Singleton had one too last year hahahaha
What the hell? That kid has problems that I hope he gets worked out quickly...
Was there truly an incident where someone wrote disturbing stuff on a bathroom wall at UM or was your post sarcastic?
Bosse was suspended? Was that public knowledge?
From a poster who said to look up James Yoder:
This is alarming as hell...
Former Michigan football player, dismissed from team a few months back... screen shots of recent tweets aimed at Harbaugh and other Michigan coaches.
You might want to lower the eyebrow, creeper.
He should shelve the hot takes and stick to hot routes.
You 2 are either trolls or an idiots. I hope for your sakes you are trolls because you would have to be pretty dumb to think some teenager goin off on twitter is a sign on a problem with the football program.
OK, let me get this straight: In a country where people - and predominantly young men, FYI - shoot each other dead in the street for looking at them the wrong way, or for the color of shirt they are wearing, or for any other tiny perceived slight, the fact that this kid has gone off the deep end in threatening his former coaches necessarily makes you think it's the coaches' fault? That seems to be a painfully stupid conclusion, IMO...
Oh shutup john. I know you're a very sensitive guy but you really have to stop with the feelings posts.

is funny. In discussions regarding the football program, you can always tell who the people are that are the most worried based on how strenuously they object to any suggestion of concern about any topic. It will be alright man, it will be alright.
April 17th, 2018 at 11:30 AM ^
I am guessing that you are totally unaware of the irony of this position: you are a concern troll arguing that anyone objecting to concern trolling must really be concerned.
Duh!
April 17th, 2018 at 11:52 AM ^
will be alright man. Hang in there. Dig deep. It will be fine.

I don't know if you recall our exchange a couple weeks back, but this kind of thing is exactly what I was talking about.
April 17th, 2018 at 12:17 PM ^
do recall. You said that every single one of my posts was "negative" or something like that. I said that actually very few on my posts are negative, and that when they are, I am not "concern trolling" but simply stating an opinion that some (vocal) people disagree with. That is fine, they don't have to think the same way I do, I am not requiring that they do.
In my opinion, if this were any other program in the country, and I saw a story above a player being so disgruntled with a coach or a program that he is tweeting what amount to death threats toward the coaching staff, I would absolutely wonder how the situation got to that point.
There are some posters that absolute mess themselves every time a poster has a take that suggests fallibility on the part of the football coaching staff. That is not me. Yes, when I read this a part of me did wonder if there were communication lapses somewhere along the way that lead to a bad situation becomming much worse for everybody. It is not some kind of far-fetched tin foil take, nor it is a "sky is falling" take.
will be fine, man. Keep that chin up.

he is not "in the right." That is a clearly erroneous interpretation of my post. A person threatening physical violence, in the absence of a clear threat to him, is in the wrong per se. It is just very rare for a fued such as this between a player and the team to raise to this level of hostilty. Go back and try to think of precedent for "college players threatens college football coach with threats of gun violence" and you are not going to come up with much.
with the way you're trying to connect dots here. You don't have any of the actual data points except the tweets. You don't know what communication happened/didn't happen/how it happened and between who. Lack of precedent for the situation is also not evidence for your conclusion.
I do hope police investigate, there is a level of threat that should not be taken lightly, specific lanugage and describing a firearm, would be it.
threatened coaches? I can guarantee it happens from time to time across the country - you are talking about 10,000s of kids. Some kids are going to have emotional and/or mental breakdowns, they are usually not stupid delusional enough to post threats on social media.
Also, different players handle tough situations differently, tragically, a lot of them commit suicide rather than lash out at others. Even in this case, I would be worried that this kid is going to hurt himself.
If you had 10 players threatening the staff, then you might have a point. This is a mental health tragedy for a kid that needs serious help. Not a reflection on anything else.

fuckin stupid. the programs fault he's nuts?
April 17th, 2018 at 11:46 AM ^
Watching Mindhunter on Netflix can give insights.. its how they process their emotion that is to blame. Obviously he is taking authority the wrong way and not being able to emotionally deal with it.

Clearly that tweet would seem to refute the "dismissed from the team a few months back" comment.
