PRIME TIME IN SHOYS: Deion Sanders Named as Buyer of $5.95M ‘Secret’ LLC Estate
THE PRIME MIGRATION: This graphic by Nano Banana decodes the secret LLC shield that attorney Hunter Logan placed around No. 9 Shoys. By tracing Nine Shoys LLC to Logan’s Christiansted office, the Sun confirmed the $5.95M purchase by Deion "Coach Prime" Sanders. Aflac’s favorite pitchman and Colorado’s head coach—whose son Shedeur now leads the Cleveland Browns—has officially planted his stakes in the sand.

CHRISTIANSTED — The "Prime Time" era has arrived on St. Croix. Following weeks of speculation, the St. Croix Sun has decoded the corporate veil surrounding the territory’s most significant real estate transaction of 2026: Deion "Coach Prime" Sanders is the buyer behind the $5,950,000 acquisition of No. 9 Shoys.
Despite attempts to mask the purchase through a "secret" domestic entity, the paper trail led directly to the Christiansted offices of Nichols, Newman, Logan, Grey & Lockwood, P.C.
Decoding the Logan Shield
The property, a sprawling contemporary beachfront villa formerly owned by Scott Ramsey, moved to "Pending" status on April 16, 2026. While the buyer’s name was shielded behind Nine Shoys LLC (Entity #578902), the Sun’s investigation successfully unmasked the entity by tracing it to its resident agent: G. Hunter Logan.
Logan, a veteran attorney known for handling the legal maneuvers of the Shoys elite, appears to have reactivated the entity specifically to facilitate this "white-glove" closing. In the world of high-stakes St. Croix real estate, once Hunter Logan’s name appears on an address-specific LLC just weeks after a celebrity site visit, the "secret" is effectively over.
The ‘Prime Time’ Effect
Sanders is not just a sports icon; he is a global corporate force. From his long-standing partnership with Aflac to his "Prime Effect" transformation of the Colorado Buffaloes, his move to the East End signals a new chapter for St. Croix. His arrival comes at a peak family moment, as his son, Shedeur Sanders, has solidified his role as a starting quarterback for the Cleveland Browns after a standout rookie season.
While Elon Musk continues to shuffle corporate headquarters between states for regulatory leverage, Coach Prime has chosen the tangible tranquility of Shoys.
SUMMARY Investigation unmasks Deion "Coach Prime" Sanders as the buyer of 9 Shoys for $5.95M; transaction managed through an LLC linked to attorney G. Hunter Logan; reporting style follows the Sun's successful January 31st Stacey Plaskett precedent.
THE SMOKING GUN: A screen grab of the official USVI MapGeo portal for 9 Shoys confirms the property has been transferred to NINE SHOYS LLC. While the multi-million dollar beachfront estate was listed as "pending" in mid-April, this corporate registration—linked to attorney Hunter Logan—effectively unmasks the $5.95M acquisition as the new Caribbean headquarters for Deion "Coach Prime" Sanders.
