You can justify openings like NOLA, but when you have multiple shots at the brass ring and come up short each time, something is wrong with the candidate.
The shouting at the bench by PMII wasn't a onetime incident. There were multiple occasions in multiple games, we all saw it. Calls were late coming in and plays often rushed. Again, we all saw it.
If there was a blowup by a OL, it almost had to be either Thuney or Brown. Wylie is a scrub and both Creed and Smith are rookies. If it was Brown, distrust in the OC could be a deciding factor on where you play next year. Bad calls make you look bad and in a contract year that's not good.
Bottom line is, no one pays $125 and up for a seat to see EB coach. If there's a riff between PMII and EB, we all know who has to go. PMII is a pro, raised by a pro, and you don't throw games and remain a pro long.

Honestly, that's the one question I have from the entire article. I'm oddly fascinated by who the OL is.
Orlando Brown and Wylie are very outspoken, and while I agree that Creed is a rookie, he also seems fairly outspoken while also having enough respect from the room to speak up if need be.
I don't know about Thuney, and Thuney seems like a prime candidate here. Is he soft-spoken? Doesn't seem to be, but I don't know.
