I think Beale or Barnes. The lack of clarity over Beale, the fact that Deans trained every day with him before the latest incident, all these things lead one to think he was considered as a likely starting choice.

For what it's worth I would personally start Cooper, but here in general I'm making the point that I can see reasons not to as well (his flakiness), and that I think the questions as to his reliability are not only valid ones but form the reason he has been left out, rather than expressing a Deans vendetta.
