It was nearly two years ago that Phillip Shanks, one of Logan Young’s closest friends and among his many legal advisors, was found beaten and unconscious at his office on the outskirts of Memphis.

Shanks claimed valuable documents – critical to the Logan Young case, as well as that of Ronnie Cottrell’s civil trial against the NCAA – were ransacked. The local police never perused the case other than a cursory glance, even giving off the distinct implication that the entire episode had been staged. Shanks claimed he gave the police the person he was absolutely convinced had mugged him – with weighty University of Tennessee connections – and nothing ever happened. Cold case.
