Put yourself in Corey's shoes.

You are the star running back, but you want out.  How do you get what you want?  There is a brand new guy running the show.  Anger him and cause tension, and he will request that ownership move on from you.

It's not about buying in.  Corey damn well might have loved what Marvin was selling, but participation and conformity will keep you there longer.  By acting out, in addition to helping to groom Rudi Johnson (who Corey once called his ticket out of town); you make yourself into a malcontent who is no longer needed and thus easier to decide to part with.
