=== OSU senior Sidorakis agrees to give up scholarship ===

Stillwater, OK (Sports Network) - Oklahoma State senior guard Nick Sidorakis
has agreed to give up his scholarship for the upcoming season because the
school is apparently over the NCAA-mandated limit.

The Oklahoman reported on Tuesday that OSU is one over the limit of 13
scholarships for the 2010-11 season, and that Sidorakis' actions mean that
the Cowboys will not have to lose a member of the team to achieve compliance.

Though OSU lost just three players from last season's roster (senior Obi
Muonelo, junior James Anderson to the Spurs and Torin Walker as a transfer to
Middle Tennessee State), four new players recruited to join the program are
expected to make the team this year.

OSU head coach Travis Ford named Sidorakis team captain back in May, despite
the fact that the Tulsa-area native posted just 2.5 points and 1.3 rebounds in
12.6 minutes as a part-time starter during his junior season.
