Kokinis story- don't read the article. You can watch the video if you want more color to it.

Because if it is true that Kokinis had been pushed to the side by Mangina like that, his behavior goes from bizarre dereliction to malicious compliance. It's all a black eye for the team: bringing him in in the first place, neutering his job, and keeping him around for what appears to be no reason.
