TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) Toney Douglas, a freshman last year at Auburn, has transferred to Florida State.<br>
<br>
Douglas will sit out the 2005-06 season, but will have three seasons of eligibility remaining, Florida State coach Leonard Hamilton said Wednesday.<br>
<br>
Douglas asked for and received his release from Auburn earlier this month after averaging nearly 17 points per game as one of the Southeastern Conference's top freshmen.<br>
<br>
The freshman was not happy at shooting guard at Auburn and wanted to develop his skills as a point guard in anticipation of an NBA career.<br>
<br>
The 6-foot-1 Douglas also averaged 5.3 rebounds and 1.4 steals last season.<br>
