Is there any way for those individuals to get away from the team box?

How do you successfully handle this type of "discussion."
If they are doing their jobs, the answer is no.

As a wingman whenever a coach wanted to continue to discuss a play about which "discussion" was useless, I would turn toward the field and say something like, "Coach, I have to cover the action on the field, now. We can discuss it later."

Later never came because he got busy doing what he was suppose to -- coaching.
