Best of Midnight Madness: The humorous side of Renardo Sidney

Midnight Madness produces some memorable moments each year, so we're chronicling the best ones from Friday's lineup all weekend. If you spot something we missed, let us know here or here.

Embattled Mississippi State big man Renardo Sidney won the school's Midnight Madness scrimmage for his team with the above two-handed follow slam, a nice moment to be sure yet maybe not his best of the night. According to the Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal's Brad Locke, Sidney delivered a terrific line while delivering a pre-taped video tour of the school's newly built practice facility. Said Sidney as he pointed to a chair across from the desk in coach Rick Stansbury's office: "This is the hot seat. You do not want to sit in this seat. You're in this seat, you're in trouble. Trust me, I know." To the delight of the crowd, Sidney then lounged in Stansbury's chair, put his feet up on the desk and delivered the classic Stansburyism, "It is what it is." Say what you will about Sidney's work ethic and propensity for getting in trouble, but it's great to see he has a sense of humor about it.
