Sidney suspended one game

HONOLULU , HI - Mississippi State coach Rick Stansbury announced Tuesday afternoon sophomore forward Renardo Sidney has been suspended one game for conduct detrimental to the team.

The suspension comes one day before the Bulldogs face Washington State in the opening round of the Diamond Head Classic and one game after he made his collegiate debut against Virginia Tech last Saturday in the Bahamas after serving an NCAA-mandated one year, nine-game suspension. Against the Hokies, he scored 12 points in 25 minutes, while being credited with three rebounds, a steal, block and assist.

"Sid is suspended for conduct detrimental to the team," Stansbury. "That's all I'm saying. That's all that needs to be said."

There will be no further comment regarding this situation.
