12 news in memphis said he was beaten beyond recognition....waiting on forensics to "positiely" identify
Logan Young found dead in home in Memphis
- Thread starter BigOnTheTide
- Start date
We may never know about this one, A very wealthy man in Memphis, a city that were it not for New Orleans would probably be concidered the crime capital of the South. Could have been a million reasons most of which have nothing to do with football,
but my money's on someone connected with UT.

"Suffice it to say, there was quite a physical struggle in this and this individual was injured severely," he said.
Nashville attorney Jim Neal, who defended Young, said he had been told the body was found by a housekeeper.
"I've had two or three calls about it, all to the same end, found killed in his home. ... I heard that there was blood everywhere. That is all I know," Neal said.

I'm not going to speculate, even facetiously, about possible culprits -- the range of possibilities is almost limitless.
What I will note instead is the wording of a news headline. In doing a Yahoo news search under Logan Young a few minutes ago, the third entry I found was from WBIR-TV in Knoxville. Here is the exact wording of the headline:
"Convicted Alabama booster Logan Young found murdered."
A bit of a double meaning there, don't you think? "Convicted Alabama booster." Sort of reminds me of the Calvin and Hobbes strip in which Susie Derkins is referred to as an "admitted girl."
And yes, I'm aware that this is a "paranoid" interpretation of the headline -- but I frankly don't care.

Surely nobody from UT is involved. It is only football, hard for me to admit that, but it is true. It would take a severely twisted person to get involved with something like this. Of course, nobody knows who attacked Phillip Shanks, so I guess anything is possible. This will wind up being one of the worst scandals in American sports history if any crazy fans are involved. Say it ain't so!
PS: I am sure Finebum will dig into this in a major way. Not sure, but somehow he will find a way to blame Shula and Mal for this, while praising tubby for keeping the barn above the fray.

If, and that is a big if, they find out who did it, my bet would be someone he knew. At least at this point, nothing showing forced entry. I know it's still early, but it would seem if they saw that, they would say it.
I guess we will either find out in time or we will not.

I don't know if there is anything to it at this point, but I heard one report on the radio that the police could not reach/find his son. I don't know if the news people were trying to insinuate anything be this statement.Supergenius said:

I've figured it out: Pretend this is a game of clue.
Mob: not, too messy, they always use a 22 cal, nice, clean, no evidence.
Robbery: not, robbers don't beat people to death, this was a passion killing
Family: not, he was sick anyway, they would have just waited for him to croak off naturally
Alabama fans: not, we blame the NCAA and Fulmer more
Tennessee Fans: not, they think he's a hero for getting us on probation
the anwer is:
Paul Finebum, he paid someone to do it, the timing couldn't be better, Shula's job is secure, Tubbervills job is secure, the coach con debate isn't enough to drive ratings, he was desperate, he needed an angle get ratings from now to kickoff. The Evil genius has struck again.

I think I read at another message board where someone mentioned his son. I found that strange, to say the least.
Well, if it was his son, it fits.
I know a man who came into a lot of money. He gave his grandson, as well as other family, big bucks. His grandson ran through it like water. He then came to his grandfather demanding more and was refused. He got mad and pushed him around, shoved him against a wall, etc. demanding more. Luckily, it ended there. But, if drugs where involved, he may have snapped.
Bottom line, it is a very sad day indeed.
