Players move on after Hofstra dumps football

NCAA Football Betting Lines

09/02/2010 -

NEW YORK (AP) -For 84 former players at Hofstra, the start of this football season is bound to come with some mixed emotions.

Last December, the school abruptly announced it was eliminating football, leaving players with eligibility scrambling.

Some transferred and at least six have even wound up at major college programs. Others have dropped to Division III or another FBS school.

The players say they still resent what happened.

Defensive back Keith Ferrara says ``it felt like someone died in my family.''Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.
