The Mississippi State Bulldogs had a huge weekend signing two potential future lottery picks in Renardo Sidney and John Riek.
Top 2010 recruit Harrison Barnes led his All Iowa Attack team to the 17 and under Championship at the 2009 Jayhawk Invitational. This kid is the next big thing, a 30 point game, 7 rebounds and a couple of blocks are all in a days work. Not to mention his kind demeanor and his ambitions of being great.
Sidney has yet to sign his letter of intent with the Trojans. Over this past weekend Sidney (originally from Mississippi) took a visit to Mississippi State.
USC coach Tim Floyd has to know that losing Sidney could spell NIT for his squad next season. Demar DeRozan, Daniel Hackett and Taj Gibson have declared for the draft. Former teammate and fellow big man Solomon Hill ended up signing with the Arizona Wildcats.
Sidney has passed his SAT and is only a few core credits short of being eligible as a freshman. Photo courtesy of here.
