1. MSU may have the one of the best frontcourts in the SEC?? Umm...you could say that with just Varnado coming back, regardless of what Riek and Sidney do.

2. SI acts as if we're a perennial also-ran in the SEC. A darkhorse run at an SEC title??? Again, with just Varnado and Augustus that was a possibility, but having Sidney available makes us a favorite (certainly not the favorite), not a darkhorse.

<span style="font-weight: bold;">Bulldog fans would probably settle for a darkhorse run at an SEC title</span> -- and in the meantime, just getting Sidney cleared to be on the court.
Most fans I talk to would be very disappointed if that was all we did next year. Seeing as we're in the running for a SEC title most years.

Stansbury, meanwhile, frames the situation as one in which Mississippi State couldn't get burned, given that UCLA and USC were the schools involved in Sidney's recruiting process in L.A. -- not the Bulldogs, who only came into the picture after the smoke cleared. "There's no risk to Mississippi State here," Stansbury said. "Renardo's been out in California for three years, and we basically didn't recruit him while he was there. For whatever reason, he wanted to come home. ... You don't have those guys fall in your lap very often. We were in the right place at the right time."</p>

i thought he did a nice job researching the sidney part of the story. it was pretty obvious that he knew nothing about mississippi state's basketball program, though
