I pointed out the only logical reason for his firing is that Mangini had seen enough of his work and decided that he didn't want him to scout and oversee the 2010 draft.

Well they're saying the reason was that he and Mangini couldn't get along, and that Mangini was also trying to save his own arse.

And something about Kokinis talking to former co-workers and saying he should have never taken the job...
