The city recorded three homicides Wednesday, bringing the total to 22 this year — three more than this time last year.
Stephen Cortner, 30, and Shanell Jackson, 23, were found shot to death just before 2 a.m. in an upstairs bedroom of a home at 2907 Mahoning Ave. on the West Side.
About 10:30 a.m., a black man about 25 years old was found face-down in a lot on the corner of Knapp Street and Gerwig Avenue on the East Side with gunshot wounds.
Police have identified the man, but would not release his name Wednesday afternoon because his family had yet to be notified. Detectives estimate the man died between 8 a.m. Tuesday and 10:30 a.m. Wednesday, when a passerby called police and reported a body in a field.
Detectives said that man's killing does not appear to have any link to the killings of Cortner and Jackson.
Jackson was found on a bed with a pillow partially covering her face and an apparent gunshot wound to the left side of her head, police said. Her 2-month-old daughter was next to her body and unharmed.
Cortner was lying on the floor at the base of the bed in a large pool of blood with an apparent gunshot wound to his upper body, officers said.
Dr. Joseph S. Ohr, Mahoning County deputy coroner, was at the scene and will conduct an autopsy today. Dr. Ohr said Cortner and Jackson were shot multiple times.
A man who lives at the Mahoning Avenue home and called police when he saw Cortner and Jackson was questioned by authorities. He is not considered a suspect, Police Chief Rod Foley said.
Cortner pleaded guilty to possession of drugs last March and in March 2008.
Jackson pleaded guilty to theft in June 2010.
In September, police were called to the address for a report of people with guns in an argument.
Foley said the Wednesday incident didn't look like a burglary and there were no signs of forced entry.
"This home was targeted for a reason," he said.
Although it appears this was not a random act, police have been trying to ratchet up presence on the West Side because they are seeing more vacant homes and drug activity, Foley said. Those efforts need to be followed by code enforcement, he added.
Wednesday was the first time in recent years that three homicides were reported on the same day. In January 2008, six people — including four children — were killed in a fatal arson on the city's East Side. In January 2007, three men and a woman were found shot to death in a South Side home.
Wednesday was the second time within two months that an infant has been found at a homicide scene. On Oct. 8, 20-year-old Tequon Sharpe was found shot to death in his South Side residence. Police said his 10-month-old daughter, of whom he had custody, was lying on his body but was not hurt.
In the latest case, Jackson's infant daughter was found lying face down and partially covered in a blanket next to Jackson, according to reports. The child is in the custody of Mahoning County Children Services, police said.
"She is still in our care, and we are pursuing possible placement with family," said Denise Stewart, the agency's executive director, Wednesday afternoon. "It's such a tragedy, and we just want work with the family."
Jackson's grandmother, Peggy Jackson, said two older siblings have been in her care. The family, she said, is "coping."
Experts say research shows that children at that young age usually don't remember events firsthand.
Christopher A. Wall, Mayo Clinic assistant professor of psychiatry, said children under 1-year-old are pre-verbal and don't remember things in the same manner as adults.
"...They remember through touch or sensation but not necessarily on a language basis," Wall said. "... In one way, they may be able to learn of it from others, but they will not in and of themselves be able to recall the event, in my view or based on theory, from a firsthand account."
Sometimes children who lose a caregiver at this age could develop reactive attachment disorder. In such cases, children need a strong connection with someone after the event.
"The most important thing at this early stage is attachment. ... If you lose a mom at that stage and don't have a good nurturing, warm provider that can keep you fed and cuddle up close, that's the biggest risk for these kids under the age of 1," Wall said.
"A little kid left crying hour after hour, along with the health concerns, there would be this tragedy with emotional development: 'I needed someone, and no one was there.'"
That can create an insecure view of the world, Wall said.
Nice mugshots! These two Youngstown Hoodrats obviously had a long criminal history. Those that live by the gun, die by the gun.
I'm betting these killings are drug related.
Live a violent drug addicted life and this is the usual outcome.
I'm sure the victims knew the killer(s) and why they were being targeted.
They either owed a drug debt or they stole the dealers stash.
Black on black violence has become the norm in Y-Town.
Increase in welfare benefits,section 8 housing,special programs,set asides ect.. haven't worked and are not the answer.
Quite honestly I don't know what the solution is but until the black community comes together and begins to value life and family expect to see more of the same.
Grandparents raising children and more unfortunate children never knowing their parents.
A sad tragic waste of life and continued drain on society.
Maybe the people involved in some of these crimes do not think that the criminal justice system can or will catch the bad guys/gals and they are taking the law into their own hands?
Vigilante justice might be the reasons for some of these murders if you think about how some of the cases in the past have been botched up or not solved.
The whole city of Youngstown, especially the Southside, has been redlined by our institutions for decades as a killing field. As long as the killing are Black on Black and stay within the ghetto, the institutions will do nothing more than the minimum. But when a bullet goes through the White House, heaven and earth are moved to find the culprit. Once our institutions define and treat the poverty-stricken residents of Y-town the same as the residents of the White House, nothing much will change.
Nothing is being done to generate jobs in The Valley on a massive scale to employ the unemployed masses . Much more can be done to shut down the drug activity .
Street justice after a killing is swift . There are no appeals nor any worries about overcrowding .
Executions can only be a deterrent to those that wittiness them! So I guess you think giving murderers three hots a cot along with health care to set on their rear end for life is a better idea!? Hmm?
The reason why some people think executions don't work is because they don't happen! People know they can sit on death row for 30 years while appealing their sentence. There's no such thing as swift justice. Ask Miriam Fife.
Violent government , violent society"
So, let these murderers sit in prison for a bit and then get out and kill more until their six feet under. What if they kill some one you love? Would the death penatly be enough?
Violent society? Seems like all the homicides this year are black on black. That seems the violent society, not the every day innocent people.
What happened about the black community coming together and such after the YSU area killing. If they want to kill each other over drugs and what not then go right ahead. It's a shame they bring babies into the world on top of it. Won't stop until they become productive members of society instead of the life style they lead on a day to day basis. It's their choice no one else.
This is weird . I just tried to write a comment but realized that throughout the past years I've written so many comments about killings in Youngstown that I can't think of any thing new to say. Oh well,just another day in Youngstown.
"The mayor barely addressed the recent violence"
Chuck has nothing to offer . He is challenged as to which way to go at a four way intersection .
There are jobs out there that no one wants. And the ones that do want the jobs expect top pay at entry level instead of WORKING to get to the top. Drug trade pays more. More risk but more reward. They all want to start at the top. How about job creation? Well, we seem to be letting these lowlifes back on the street because of overcrowding. Build (construction jobs) more prisons (police jobs, janitorial jobs, cooks, nurses, etc). BUT the only state of the art item in this prison--alarms, locks and such. No country club deal. Prisoners work for their meals on a credit system. The more trouble you get in the less credit you get, the less "extras" you receive, like full meals, recreation access. Let's start treating them like they are PRISONERS.
Our local governments are helpless with this drug violence.
This past week, I saw two seperate traffic stops where the police had drug sniffing dogs crawling over the vehicles, while the occupants were standing near the cruisers. Other patrol cars were parked alongside and the cops had their hands on their holstered guns.
Our cities are becoming crime infested pitholes, while we can't even police our borders and Mexico has lost control of their country...all because of drugs.
I am Mel, seems like he actually cares about his city and neighborhood I hope he can keep . his head up and try to change the culture that Youngstown has evolved into It has taken two generations to put the black community into its present state, ever since LBJ and his Great Society it has been all down hill for the black community and family.
I'm sorry but more blame needs to be placed on the police department in this city. I've lived many places including much bigger cities like Atlanta.
No one in Youngstown fears the police. They view them as a joke. They know that could never respond to a crime in time to actually stop anything. I've lived on the west side for two years and had to call the cops twice. The first time a random drunk guy staggered into my driveway in the middle of the night and was urinating and breaking bottles. I called the cops because my 2 year old kept getting woken up. The cops arrived and made more noise chatting with the guy about how they both grew up on Brier Hill. They then let the guy call a friend to pick him up while they continued to chat. You've got to be kidding me?!
The second time was just several weeks ago when a drunk driver blasted a fire hydrant in front of our house. I approached the driver when he said he was calling a friend to come pick him up. It took the cops over 30 minutes to arrive. I even called them back and said "this guy is going to leave if you don't hurry up". They treated it like it was the most minor offense. It was like nothing I had ever witnessed before.
Brown and kensgirl,
The Raymond Fife murder is the worst thing that ever happened around here. If we can't forget about that tragedy,can you imagine what his mom goes through everyday?
I've made this point on here many,many times. You can't keep on having babies without the resources,maturity,education and in a one parent home,and expect anything less than what you're seeing. And it's getting worse.
I've complained to the children services and anybody else who will listen to me,but it seems that this government wants more and more people dependent on government.
If any of you really want to help,write to the Vindy,call all the churches and let your politicians know that having grandma raising their babies is no longer acceptable. And one would be bad enough,but these young girls and boys are having multiples without any conscience.
I guess the only consolation for the grandmother if there is any is that she will only have to raise 3 grandkids....unless of course if Miss Jackson had any sisters. In that case all bets may be off!!!
As fcb said, it is the same old story, just change the names.
On the west - do you actually think the Y.P.D. will run to a random drunk call when there's murders happening every night? They're so backed up with calls now it's lucky they responded at all. By no means do I support drunk driving either but geez it's not the cops fault that these thugs have ruined the city. It's a cancer and it has metasticized so widely that the Natuonal Guard wouldn't be able to handle it. More dads need to step up to the plate and more moms need to get off crack. And it's just not the blacks. There are just as many trashy whites, let's be honest. And BTW if anyone is talking about death row and how inhumane lethal injection is then just shoot them by firing squad. Bullets are cheap. Just ask any thug. Let's get with it people. No more coddling. Say what you mean and mean what you say. Send a message.
Kensgirl - Umm yea I do expect them to come to a random drunk call. Is that too much to ask from my local police department? I'd also like to see the data on how many of these murders they actually solve.
I couldn't agree with you more about the moms and dads, but that is not going to happen. That is a sociological issue. But having more police on duty is easily possible.
obviously, we need more marches and candlelight vigils !!
I've said it before and I'll say it again. It's time to bring back orphanages.
There is no reason to have people who have no business walking the streets unattended raising children who were born as innocent bystanders into this foolishness.
If you have a child and have no means to PERSONALLY support it (either by a 2 parent home, or a job), that child goes into an orphanage where it can escape the generational violent crime inbreeding that is occurring.
You're on your own in Youngstown and have to stand up for yourself.
You can have a cop on every corner and if someone wants to kill someone they're going to do it by hell or high water. It's how the criminal mind works. Remember, their minds aren't like ours. They're all doped up and they're irrational. Ever try to subdue someone high on drugs? I have. Sometimes even a taser won't stop them as we've seen in the past. As my father used to say "Bring back the chain gang". Herd them in and tie 'em up. Give them a pick ax and have at it.
You are such a coward.
"If you don't like the way this place is, take yourself to higher places!"
Run away to the safety of the burbs. Run-away - Run away. . . What are you going to do when the same crime you are advising people to run away from shows up on your doorstep in Canfield. . . run further out? Pretty soon you'll be living in East Liverpool. . . oh wait - there's tons of crime there too. Then you'll have to revise your red-zone.
If people had drawn the line in the sand 25 or 30 years ago in Youngstown, we wouldn't be having these problems now. But no - the answer is run away to the burbs and draw circles around maps with warning signs in them.
How about growing a set and help solve the problem rather than running from it.
Why did the Vindy have to use a mug shot picture? If you guys can go and talk to the family I am pretty sure that they would give you a photo to put in your newspaper. Two lives were taken in front of a baby, who cares what they did before... All that matters is that they were murdered and that is a tragedy.
The really sad thing is that this might be the only chance for the baby to have an opportunity for a better life. With role models like this, this little girl had no chance.
None of you, including me have any idea what happened. What are you the judge and the jury? So once someone makes a mistake in life they are permanently labeled in our city? No wonder those who are down and out can never get back up.
I take it that the two victims at 2907 Mahoning Ave. weren't armed as I see no mention of it .
I noticed a lot of EastSide Real Estate ready for urban homesteading . . .. Do you have these listed? . . ..
"Your town is down for the count and it doesn't look good."
And it's always greener on the other side, huh? Crime, Violence, Drugs, etc are Everywhere, there is no paradise. You can run all you want but you can never escape it.
So keep dreaming in your mind that your exempt from it, if it makes you feel better. Because in reality it's all the same...everywhere in the good ole USofA...
Why did the Vindy have to use a mug shot picture?
Why not? Why try to sugarcoat the lifestyle they lead. It's called Reality.
"Two lives were taken in front of a baby, who cares what they did before... All that matters is that they were murdered and that is a tragedy."
And what they did before is the reason they were murdered and they are to blame for putting that INNOCENT baby in that situation. No one else! A tragedy? No, a tragedy is a INNOCENT person murdered. This was over drugs! Pure and simple.
From WKBN
While they aren't saying much about the murders, police believe one of two people shot to death on the city's West Side was targeted in a possible drug-related shooting. "These individuals, or at least one of the two individuals, that was murdered was targeted, and probably the second one was shot because they were a potential witness," said police Chief Rod Foley. "We think that was more of a set-up style murder, it wasn't a random home invasion. For some reason this individual was targeted."
I read the different comments that people leave on vindy every now and then,mostly then. I have never cared to comment myself. But today I just had too. It's always the same people on here leaving some of the most ignorant comments. I didn't know any of the people who lost their lives in these last few days but none of them should have lost their life like they did. I don't care what they have done in their lives,its just not right! What gives anyone the right to determine when its another persons time to go. And you people act like this stuff only happens in the hood. What about the white boy who killed his friend,but told the 911 operator that the boy shot himself. Or what about the guy who got murdered in Howland. Did they deserve to die. What do you rude a s s people have to say about them? I can't hear you... The point is,no matter what any of them has done they all have someone who loves them,someone who will miss them!
they probably didn't get enough hugs growing up.
I worked with Shanell Jackson and although I did not know her for very long, she was a really nice girl. She was a good worker at her job and was an intelligent person. She frequently showed pictures of her new baby girl like any proud mother would. Whatever the circumstances where that led to this tragedy are unknown to the rest of us. It is unfair to stereotype a person who may have been in the wrong place or made a mistake. No one deserves to die in that manner. RIP Shanell, your co-workers will miss you.
The victims have no grasp of the dangers that they face . . .. Those who they hang out with many times end up taking their lives . They never expect what is in store for them .
"What gives anyone the right to determine when its another persons time to go. "
The animals that did this. Get mad at them. And over what? Drugs? Are you not sick of it?
"And you people act like this stuff only happens in the hood."
Whether you agree or not, 99.9999% of the time it does and you can't deny that or fear for your life in the "hood.
"What do you rude a s s people have to say about them? I can't hear you..."
Why do you bring race into it? If you want, of all the homicides in the city this year, how many were blacks? I'm waiting......
People need to quit being so defensive when it comes to this violence. There is no sugarcoating or ignoring it. It won't go away. Be proactive against the violence instead of getting mad at the wrong people. Comprehend?
"It is unfair to stereotype a person who may have been in the wrong place or made a mistake."
Who is stereotyping anyone? It is what it is, no more no less. You can't be that naive.
"No one deserves to die in that manner."
No, no one does. Who said someone deserves to die in that manner? What happens when you play with fire??
I made no mistake by staying, nor am I jealous of your property value.
I bought my house for about 35K, improved and have enjoyed it over the years and it just appraised for around 70. True - it's not appreciating in value as much as it might, but I promise you this - it's not loosing nearly the value that your McMansion in the burbs is.
In addition, the 2.75% income tax I'm paying is not even remotely close to the obscene amounts of property taxes I'm certain you are paying. Hopefully you have kids in school, because that's the only reason that anyone in their right mind would pay the inflated prices and taxes for those places in the burbs.
Fact is that staying and addressing a problem is better than continually running away from it no matter how many hand-scrawled maps and home-made YouTube videos you post to bolster your chicken-sh1t opinion. If you're not going to help, at least have the common decency to not try to drag down everyone else who is.
WOW...Muders up from last year...for a short time I thought things were getting a "Little" better???
Guess Not.
Loss of life...no respect for life...
Very sad.
I agree with an earlier comment: "Stan should run for Mayor or a Council seat"...He is usually, like it or not, pretty much on target.
YoungstownBornRaised Is still shell shocked from being slapped silly by a hood mama .
I want Obama's job . . ..
The powers in Youngstown are content with raising the taxes to get more money and the people love them for it . Few jobs are being generated in which to oppress the masses with employment .

"You're "70K" house isn't worth $25K!"
Always good to get an "expert opinion" from someone who doesn't live or spend any time here, other than to skip in, take some stock damning photos for his sky-is falling blog and skip out.
Apparently banks who have been red-lining this area for years disagree with you. That''s what they appraised it at just before they refinanced it for me. Not the county auditor, not some real-estate speculator, not some suburb crazed know nothing like you. . . a real bank loaning real money against the "real" value of a property right now - not at some hypothetical point in the future
I don't care nor have to know how much you make. Your property tax is based on the inflated perceived value of your McMansion, which is why you are paying a ton more than my 2.75% income tax.
Face it Carl, you're a surburbanite snob with delusions of grandeur propped up by the fact that you can take pictures of and blog about some vacant property in a city you clearly know nothing about.
This situation is truly sad but yes, I 've heard it all before….I believe a huge issue we have here in the city is "Education" and not in the formal sense. Women sometimes believe they have the power to "change" an individual, men in particular, and this is where the miseducation/misconception begins. Or even worse, (both men and women in this situation) begin to believe that something like this will never happen to them. And dare I ask "what makes you so special?" Young black women and men alike need to hold themselves too much higher standards and dare to rise above what has become the "norm" for our city. I feel women engage in these relationships and shroud their conscience with ignorant thoughts, "I can change him", "He means well", "He's a good man at heart" when the truth of the matter is, is if that man doesn't value his own life to want more for himself, why would he do anything different for you? I've never done the statistical research (which I will now do), but I am certain the facts are startling! Our young people need to fully realize the risks they are taking with their lives! These are lessons that now have to be taught at home. Times are changing. Just as with the onset of the Internet (even though, on a much larger scale) and precautions taken against child pornography, cyber-sex, sexting, and Internet predators, parenting in the city of Youngstown must evolve. Our children need to be exposed to more positive experiences. I am truly saddened by these lives lost. My prayers are with the families and my fellow residents of the City of Youngstown, because "we" all are NOT crack-addicted, hoodrats or thugs trying to make a living off welfare, LOL (I'm sorry, I had to add that....)
onthewest :
"9529 Comments = GET A LIFE"
What would you suggest ?
"When was the last time that ANY house of 2000 ft.^2 or more built within city limits? Is there anyone stupid enough to build a new-construction "McMansion" in Youngstown?"
I think a better question is why would anyone want to build a cardboard, plastic and Corrian McMansion for big bucks when you can buy the real thing for half of what it costs to build a brand-new fake one.
Jealous? Not hardly. I live in a 106 year old 4000 sq ft house that will still be standing long after those cardboard wanna-be's have crumbled to dust. My 10 inch baseboards and crown moldings are real quarter-sawn oak. My leaded glass windows were hand-made by real craftsmen. My hardwood floors are actual hardwood (not Chinese made pressboard with oak veneer on top of it).
Seems to me that you're the jealous one Carl. There's a reason people make fun of the suburban life and you seem to embody most all of those reasons.
PS - Burglarized 3 times in 3 days? I've lived here 24 years and have been burglarized exactly 0 times. You gotta be doing something seriously wrong to have them hit you up 3 times in a row.
New eco friendly lead free housing coming soon . . ..
If the ones who leave are people like you Carl, we can only hope. . .
2112 = Bigger Joke.

A bipartite graph G=(A, B, E) is convex on the vertex set A if A can be ordered so that for each element b in the vertex set B the elements of A connected to b form an interval of A; G is doubly convex if it is convex on both A and B. Letting ¦A¦=m and ¦B¦=n, in this paper we describe maximum matching algorithms which run in time O(m + nA(n)) on convex graphs (where A(n) is a very slowly growing function related to a functional inverse of Ackermann's function), and in time O(m+n) on doubly convex graphs. We also show that, given a maximum matching in a convex bipartite graph G, a corresponding maximum set of independent vertices can be found in time O(m+n). Finally, we briefly discuss some generalizations of convex bipartite graphs and some extensions of the previously discussed techniques to instances in scheduling theory.

I've recently reinstalled Outlook 2007 and am having an issue with existing emails being downloaded again.
I backed up and imported my PST so all original messages are in Outlook already. I have Outlook configured as a POP account and set to leave messages on the server for two weeks. This is because I have my phone setup as IMAP and need to access the messages on there. For various reasons, I don't want to setup Outlook as IMAP.
It seems that the messages are being recognized and pulled down again. Is there any way around this?

Inequality and Trust: Testing a Mediating Relationship for Environmental Sustainability

AbstractInstrumental arguments linking inequality to environmental sustainability often suppose a negative relationship between inequality and social cohesion. While social cohesion is difficult to measure, there are measures of a narrower concept, social trust, and empirical studies have shown that social trust is negatively related to inequality. In this paper we test whether at least part of the observed relationship may be explained by income level, rather than income distribution. We use individual response data from the World Values Survey at the income decile level, and find evidence that income level is indeed important in explaining differences in levels of social trust, but it is insufficient to explain all of the dependence. In the sample used for the study, we find that both income level and income distribution help explain differences in social trust between countries.

Death By 30 Or Death By Cake
This cake is for a co-worker who turns 30 on on the 10th. My fiance really helped with the concepts. It is so morbid though that I kept laughing after a little while... I bought the grave stones from a party supply store they are department 56.

Megan Garber: Abraham Lincoln Did Not Invent Facebook: How a Guy and His Blog Fooled the Whole Wide InternetRoundup: Talking About History
Megan Garber is a staff writer at The Atlantic. She was formerly an assistant editor at the Nieman Journalism Lab, where she wrote about innovations in the media.
It started with a headline I saw pinging around Twitter yesterday afternoon. Abraham Lincoln, my friends' tweets informed me, had invented a 19th-century version of Facebook.
Yes! This previously unknown tidbit, it turns out, was the discovery of a guy in Milwaukee who had happened to take a day off work -- and then happened (serendipity!) to visit a circus graveyard in Delavan, Wisconsin -- and then happened (serendipity again!) to visit the Lincoln Library in Springfield, Illinois -- and then happend (serendipity some more!) to discover that Mr. Lincoln had once filed a patent application for a newspaper that would, via profiles and updates, "keep People aware of Others in the Town."...
I called David Blanchette at the Lincoln Library. Was there any way this story could really be true? In short: no. "This is a complete hoax," Blanchette told me. The existence of the Springfield Gazette, Lincoln's proto-profile page? "Spurious." The "profile" picture of Lincoln on the page of the Gazette? "They didn't run pictures in newspapers back then." The library's help in making the serendipitous discovery? "We had nothing to do with it."...

Somebody really hates the SLUT.
Yesterday evening, the King County Sherrif's office was called in after a trolley conductor spotted a "handball" sized ball bearing on trolley track at Westlake Avenue and Thomas St.
"We checked the rest of the tracks and we didnt find any others," says Sergeant John Urquhart, spokesman for the King County Sheriff's office. "[But] We are treating it seriously. There could have been serious damage to the street car, but its unlikely it could have derailed it."
Urquhart says anyone caught tampering with the tracks could be charged with reckless endangerment and/or vandalism and malicious mischief. According to Urquhart, the King County Sheriff's office and Metro Transit are discussing ways to prevent a similar incident in the future.

Prevention of disease and the promotion of health are the highest achievement of medicine. Application of the science and principles underlying these concepts will lead to decreased pain, suffering, disability, and premature death. The evidence for this is clear, but, unfortunately, the application does not occur consistently. Hence, the American people experience needless pain, suffering, disability, and premature death. Yet, such simple things as the use of seat belts, sensible eating, not smoking, and moderation in the use of alcohol would benefit literally millions of people. Can anything be done?
In November 1984, I was privileged to cochair, with former President Jimmy Carter, a "consultation" at The Carter Center, located at Emory University. The results of studies indicating the needless deaths from failure to heed prevention principles and practice were clearly and completely related. A variety of topics (violence, digestive diseases, injuries, smoking, and others) were covered, and the data

First post. GREAT TIMING for it. Go ahead and blast me if you want.
I'm a sports writer, so I try and be as objective as possible, and I can't say I agree with most of you regarding Alex Smith. The guy has made a lot of mistakes, but I feel he gets way more blame than he deserves. Being 0-5 will get you that, however.
Anyways, I always read that you guys are tired of SIX YEARS of Alex Smith. It hasn't really been SIX YEARS of Smith. The guy was a rookie in year one, improved A LOT in year two and then missed the next two seasons and a half after the O-line got him hurt (he was hurt in game 3 of season 3 and sat out season 4 hurt again).
He came back in the middle of season five and AGAIN showed promise. This season is his sixth and it's been inconsistency along with every bad break you can think of. Not many are helping either. But I can't say I think the guy is horrible. He looks great at times, and then he'll make the BIG mistake. He looked good tonight. I think the fumble was his only bad play of the night. Pretty costly.
Anyways, it's been six years since the 49ers drafted him but it's really his FOURTH year, and it's like he's been rebooted since coming back... Guy's had a crazy career. I understand Niners' fans being tired of losing, but Alex Smith isn't the reason alone. This team is shooting itself on the foot as a whole. David Carr is not the solution.
People asking for Troy Smith ... I don't know if these people even watch games, but it's alright. Fans are going to be fans and boo the home team.
Get real, can the 49ers do better at QB than Alex Smith at the moment? I don't believe so, although many of you might object. I'd stick with him, though. Season's over regardless and there's no one to "groom" for next season. I'll go on the record and say I think he'll be successful somewhere else after this year. He's got the tools. I believe he'll figure it out.

|Michigan -4 (KenPom)
Win or go home.
Projected starters are in bold:
|Isaiah Taylor

|5'11, 195
|Sort of
|Volume jump shooter hits 38%/34%. Takes ton of iso two point jumpers.
|Demarcus Holland
|6'2, 185
|Lots of TOs, miserable FT% for guard, shoots 45% from two.
|Jonathan Holmes
|6'8, 240
|Sort of
|Stretch-ish 4 is OREB guy and decent 3 threat. Low min despite high ORTG.
|Cameron Ridley
|6'9, 285
|Post widebody is rebound machine, draws tons of fouls.
|Connor Lammert
|6'9, 235
|Sort of
|Typical post backup, but does have range to 3. Efficient, but low usage.
|Martez Walker
|6'4, 185
|Sort of
|Emerged into 20 min/G backup lately. Decent shooter, no standout skill yet.
|Prince Ibeh
|6'10, 250
|Generic large man.
Texas is an oddity in the college basketball world, an old-school, throwback two-post outfit that usually has two 6'8+ guys on the court at all times. NCAA teams have increasingly moved away from this paradigm in favor of a smaller, more offensively efficient one, and Texas's stats reflect their interior orientation. They're rebounding monsters who can't shoot.
As far as individual players go, the guy who makes things go is center Cameron Ridley, a Traylor-like post who has his own gravitational pull.
Ridley crushes the boards at both ends and has a top 25 free throw rate. Unfortunately, he's mediocre at best once there (62%) and is only decent from the floor at 55%. He does take care of the ball well for a big guy.
Texas splits its minutes at the four about down the middle between Jonathan Holmes and Connor Lammert. They're similar players statistically, both monsters on the defensive boards and very good on the offensive boards. Both guys have three point range (34% for both) that they don't use very much and shoot decently from two. They're Texas's most effective players at shooting, full stop.
When a post isn't taking a shot it's usually not good news for the Texas offense. Their two high-usage guards are not particularly efficient. Point guard Isaiah Taylor is a flash in the lane but has limited ability to finish once there. He's shooting just 40% on his 327(!) two point attempts, and he has only 19 three point attempts on the year. When he is on, though, he is scary:
He assists, of course, but his A:TO ratio is mediocre at best. Taylor's best asset is his ability to get to the line. That asset is one usually nerfed by Michigan's passivity on defense, but the tradeoff is that Taylor might be getting way better shots than he usually does.
Meanwhile, to envision Felix Javan, strip eight inches off of Zak Irvin and make him shoot 38%/34%. Oh and give him a bunch more assists. But basically short bricklayer Irvin. Only 14% of his shots are at the rim and most of his twos are not assisted; he dribbles himself into two point jumpers. He is Texas's primary three point threat. At 34%, yes.
The third guard, Demarcus Holland, is a really bad offensive player who must be on the floor solely to D up. He shoots 57/45/29 and turns the ball over a ton.
Texas opened the tournament with a dramatic buzzer-beater win over Arizona State in a game that was shockingly efficient for the Horns, which put up a Michigan-like 1.24 PPP thanks to low turnovers and efficient two point shooting. That Holland guy I just trashed had 14 points on 7 shot equivalents, IE the maximum you can acquire without taking a three. He didn't try a three.
Before that game Texas was on a hell of a skid, 3-5 in their last eight with one of the wins over basketball nonentity TCU, and with all but one loss by 9 points. They went 11-7 in a very deep and tough Big 12, though, and boast wins against Iowa State, Baylor (twice), Kansas, and Oklahoma State.
Texas didn't have a lot of high quality opponents in the nonconference slate. They beat autobids Mercer and Stephen F Austin early, lost to BYU on a neutral floor, and go run by MSU at home. Their main selling point a road win against mercurial North Carolina in an 80 possession game.
Texas shoots miserably from everywhere and tries to make up for it by crushing the offensive boards. They also get to the line a fair bit, though they're only 67% there. Texas is relatively uptempo and not particularly efficient when they go uptempo, so that's a push with Michigan's problematic transition D.
Keep it tight and slow. Texas tries to get out in transition because their half court offense is poor. This doesn't go that much better (Texas transtion eFG%: 52%; Michigan: 64%; Michigan halfcourt eFG%: 53%), but the increase in their efficiency is approximately as large as Michigan's increase in efficiency. If Michigan can make this into a shooting contest, the only thing that will save Texas is a blizzard of offensive rebounds.
When in doubt, help. Texas's best three point shooter is mediocre and the rest of the team is hesitant to even launch one. The Horns are in the 300s at taking threes and 251st at hitting them. Texas's bigs have miniscule assist rates. Double the post every time.
Meanwhile, when someone's driving, perimeter players should feel free to sag off most Texas players in an effort to get the driver to pull up and kick it back out or take a floater. Allowing the driver to engage the big is bad news, as a missed shot that draws Morgan or Horford over looks to be as good as an assist against the burly Longhorns.
This may be a situation where a zone can help you out. Tight turnaround, lots of drivers without much shooting, team that couldn't really prep much for you with a 7/10 game looming, coach regarded as a bit of a lightweight… this could be a situation where the 1-3-1 can make a major impact. The threat of the offensive rebound veritably looms, but it's a curveball you can test out some to see if it works. The rarely seen 2-3 also seems like an option if Michigan can't stay in front of Texas's waterbug guards.
Crash the boards a bit yourself. Texas is mediocre at defensive rebounding because their bigs try to block everything. While there's not much hope Michigan can hold Texas off the offensive boards, they can mitigate some of that possession advantage by having Morgan/Horford mitigate that.
Michigan by 4.
The time should be 5:15p and the day Saturday.
I literally hate Beiber. No, it isn't jealousy. I just hate his antics.
A few years ago I gave my daughter a singing Justin Bieber toothbrush as a reward for her giving up sucking her thumb. The toothbrush "sang" two songs, and provided a good way to time how long she should be brushing her teeth.
The bigger point is that if you want to get some strange looks, go to your local Best Buy and buy a Justin Bieber toothbrush as a grown-ass man. I slapped it down on the counter with aplomb, because it seemed the best approach given the circumstances.
I would have made my daugter go with me, pick it out herself, put it on the counter herself, and be sure to ask "Now, Sweetie...are you sure this is the one you want??"
Who seems to be totally out of control. How did he become a Texas fan?
Because he's an out of control asshole.
It seems that our biggest issue may be keeping Morgan and Horford out of foul trouble. Fortunately, B1G refs won't officiate the game, so I think that Morgan's ability to be charged may result in ... you know ... actual charges being called.
Morgan may be the single most important player tomorrow.
Post Widebody sounds like he could be in the basketball version of Space Mutiny.
"They beat autobids Mercer and ..."
Well that makes them better than Duke, right?
Texas strongest inside, us strongest outside. Im gonna go with a high scoring thriller 82-80 Michigan
This team generally seems to be focused when playing top teams. I wonder if playing down to Mercer just never gave us the kick in the pants we needed to put it in gear, only when Mercer brought it 7 was the team like 'oh ok' and shut the door.
A better Texas team will equal a better Michigan team
Thankfully, we played Wofford. I can see why you've got Mercer on the mind, though. :)
Shit are we Duke?
Coach McGary sez: Win the Game!
I don't know if I want to be in a world where a team coached by Rick Barnes beats Beilein. It can't happen. KenPom therefore must be correct, KenPom be praised.
I should note that potential Sweet 16 opponent Tennessee is actually even higher on KenPom than Duke. Which, yikes. Yeah, they and Iowa really didn't belong in a play-in game.
I hope we don't settle for too many jump shots and try to attack inside. We are a very good free-throw shooting and we should attack their bigs a bit.
Agreed. Make Ridley work and try to get him in foul trouble. He has been known to get tired toward the end of games. He put in a lot of work late Thursday night.
gotta like our chances with the 3 in our bracket bowing out.
Our pathway like look like: 15, 7, 14 or (play-in)11, Wichita or 4 seed Lousiville ...to the Final Four.
That play-in 11 sits several spots higher than Michigan on KenPom, so I wouldn't exactly consider that an easy one should Michigan get past Texas and should Tennessee get past Mercer.
Kenpom is wrong this will be a blowout.
Hey, good call, Brian, on Duke being upset-vulnerable. I didn't see that coming.
Horford has to show up. End of story.
Hack-a-Ridley if we get too far behind, ala the St. Louis - NC State game? Trade some missed TX free throws here and there for some threes from Michigan to make up some ground.
As long as we don't do it with Morgan. Hello: Max.
...then I see that Bieber picture. Frickin' stomp their guts out, Blue.

Product Description
Twenty-year-old Jenilee Lane, whose dreams are as narrow as the sky is wide, doesn't imagine any good could come out of the tornado that has ripped across the Missouri farmland where she makes her home. But some inner spark compels her to take action. To rescue her elderly neighbor Eudora Gibson from the cellar in which she's been trapped. To make her way to the nearby town of Poetry, where the townspeople have begun to gather in the only building left standing. To collect from the devastated landscape fragments of life that lie strewn about in the tornado's wake: letters, photographs, and mementos that might mean something to people who have lost everything.

Janet Thompson5 Stars Out Of 5September 8, 2010Janet ThompsonI read this book quite awhile ago and really loved it! When the tornado was wiping out the area Jenilee lives in, I could imagine being there! Seeing the devastation, feeling the sadness of losing everything. I loved it when she is rescuing her neighbor, Eudora, from the cellar. Eudora reminded me a lot of one of my aunts. As Jenilee makes her way into town, through debris from the storm, she gathers pieces of pictures and other memories that have been strewn about by the tornado. She takes these things to town and puts them up on a board, hoping people might recognise some of it. Jenilee becomes involved in helping so many people, while waiting to hear if her brother and dad made it. This is a wonderful, heartwarming story that you won't soon forget! I haven't.
