Easiest solution I can think of for Sidney. Tell him..

[gtowndawg]

he's eligible to play again when he's lost 30 pounds. He'll either quit or work out hard to get back ASAP.

on a guy who was willing to fight a teammate in order to get to the concession stand??

 

[JacksonDevilDog]

because telling him to lose 30lbs and he'll be a top 10 pick was not working out so well.

Either way, it's completely up to Sidney.

Calipari did the same thing with Pierre Niles (Memphis player) about 3 years ago. Said if he didn't meet a weight requirement he was off the team for good. He went on to meet the requirement, but quit the following year.

Edited to add the following quote and link:

"I can't dress out at all unless I'm down to 275. If it comes from Cal, you've got to do it," Niles said. "Once I get in shape, nobody will be able to stop me. But first I've got to lose the weight."
That's the challenge.

He isn't even going to be looked at by NBA teams if he doesn't get his stuff together. Somebody is going to have to figure out a way to make him work harder, or he will wind up in some league in the middle of no where, at best.<div>
