News bulletin: Hoftra, which has been playing football since the university’s founding in 1937, will play it no longer.
“The cost of the football program, now and in the future, far exceeds the return possible,” Hofstra president Stuart Rabinowitz said Thursday.
Rabinowitz said the $4.5 million spent annually on the team will be used on need-based scholarships and other priorities.
A school using money used for academic scholarships when it could be used for athletics? That’s crazy!
