Some believe the guards murdered Phillips after this. This is the story that never made the news.

The American landscape is littered with Lawrence Phillips's : whether former professional, collegiate or prep school, they're ubiquitous. Scores of such, as George Plimpton might say. Look around your neighborhood. And quite a few of them are in bad shape. Well past their primes, addicted, broke, half mad, calling up current athletes begging them for money. If it wasn't for the salaries/tributes they sometimes glean, they'd be latter day slaves. As it is, they all live in the film Spartacus, if not The Hunger Games. Try to remember that when you watch the next team athletic contest, suitably stylized and produced for a mass audience. Rollerball '75.

I took a deep dive into this and interviewed a former Husker player about it. Phillips was tortured by his prison guards. They put a killer in his cell and forced him to live with the most dangerous man in the prison who constantly threatened Phillips life. The guards took away Phillips leg brace. He was in severe pain and the taking of the brace resulted in permanent damage to his limb. Long story short is they treated him worse than a prisoner of war. It was that bad. He cried out for help but the warden didn't care. No one at the prison cared. One day his cell mate threatened one time too many and it was on. Phillips survived the other man didn't. I'm not claiming Phillips was white as snow but he asked for help and it never came. Truly a sad story. Note: There are credible people who believe Phillips was murdered by the prison guards. We'll never know.

The fact teachers, coaches and sports personnel didn't pick up on his inner issues and push him towards dealing with that is a testament of what sports was back then. They didn't really care about you as much as the ability you had. Even at the high school level. Let you skate through the semester, sleeping through class bc he's the star athlete and it matters more that he's playing than learning. It is a classic case of mother instilling in them love doesn't exist in their world. Then disappear. The child is stuck in that exact spot every morning he opens his eyes and every night he closes them. When the women would leave him, he went back to that child who knows love doesn't exist. Then he does what he never got to do to who told him that on those women who left him. It's a true tragedy because that man could ball. But one might wonder if the running was so easy for him because that's all he did his whole life. Run. Away. He certainly was a monster. But so was everyone else that rode his back. Didn't reach out with the # to a doctor. Or get him help of any sort. Just provided ways for his actions to not have consequences which only threw fuel on the fire. When you think about it. It was at no fault of his own. We all deal with the cards we were dealt but he didn't get any cards. He had to create his own. That's not a fair scale! MattBeGreat...you should look up Lyle Alzado.

You’re a tremendous creator, and nothing but huge props to you, sir. You’re funny and extremely talented. As a recovering alcoholic I’d like to at least share what I know about LP’s addiction that might help with a future story. To be fair, according to most experts, nobody chooses to be an alcoholic. I think you were just using what it seemed like he chose, but lemme be honest with you about my own alcoholism and the experience of thousands and 10s of thousands of recovery community meetings and hundreds of hours of counseling. There’s some researchers who claim they can predict alcoholism with the presence of 1 genetic marker. I’m not well versed in the science though I could add links for you, I’d rather not clutter up your comments from your large subscriber base. In the 1990’s there was still very little understanding of the drug & alcohol addiction that has led to the worst period of substance abuse in history up until that particular time. We all thought Otis, the town drunk on Andy Griffin Show was FUNNY. I’d encourage you to do more research on the subject, nobody truly chooses to drink or get high, at least the real addicts don’t. To his credit Tom Osborn actually stood up to his critics and in effect, indicated he felt like keeping LP on the team, because he was afraid he’d get high and then injured.

You left out the craziest shit he did. He broke into a woman's house while she was sleeping. Her boyfriend stayed over him and Philips fought. I'm pretty sure that was miami

Matt, you are spot on, sports is what every child should be doing instead of being in the house. I know my kids (now successful adults) were both in sports and that made all the difference in the kids they hung out with

I sat on the jury for Phillips’ assault, attempted murder, kidnapping and auto theft trial. The guy was truly an imposing figure; I had never heard of him before then. After jury selection was complete, he never showed up in the courtroom again. You read that right. The trial went on without the presence of the defendant. Strangest thing I ever saw. He was convicted on all counts and the judge sentenced him to 40+ years (this was on top of the sentence he had already received for driving over the teenager up in LA). Afterwards , I spoke with the DA and said I’ve never encountered someone who had thrown his life away so badly. She just shook her head and walked out of the courtroom. What a waste…

LP was a pitbull that got stuffed full of rage as a child. The whole frost interaction... everyone on that team knew that LP wasnt over the ex gf. Those that arent sacks of sh!t avoided provoking the pitbull filled with rage. Frost had the young lady over knowing better. But did so anyway. What LP did to the girl was horrid. While he did it, Frost was hiding in a freaking closet calling 911. In all honesty if you ever do a Frost video, thats all you need to know. Some of LPs best years were at Nebraska because he had Osborne and other mentors trying to keep him on track and moving forward. Which is a large reason as to why he got back onto the team after the assault. He needed the team focus to keep him from falling over the edge. Once he was drafted by the Rams he no longer had the support system he needed to cope with the world in a healthy. No slight towards the Rams organization. Its just the difference between college and pros at the time. It was one sh!t show after another until he was dead in prison. His parents set him up for failure and LP never found a way to manage his internal rage as an adult.

I wrote him when he was in prison, and he wrote back to me. Then shortly afterwards he committed suicide.
