NCAA Football Betting Lines
02/09/2012 - Staten Island, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Former Fordham head football coach Tom Masella has been named associate head coach at Wagner College, veteran Seahawks head coach Walt Hameline announced Thursday.
Masella, a native of Staten Island who played defensive back at Wagner before graduating in 1981, also will serve as the secondary coach and special teams coordinator.
It is Masella's second coaching stint at Wagner, where he began his career under Hameline from 1982-84.
"I'm excited to be back at my alma mater and to be back home here on Staten Island," Masella said. "Obviously, I have the utmost respect for Walt Hameline as a person and as a football coach. This is an exciting opportunity for me and I can't wait to jump in and start getting to know and working with the players and the rest of the coaching staff."
Masella has coached at nine colleges. Most recently, he served as Fordham's head coach for six seasons. He finished 27-40 overall and was fired last November after the Rams went 1-10 - their worst record since 1999.
He also was head coach at Fairfield (1996), Boston University (1996-97) and Central Connecticut State (2004-05). He has a 44-66 all-time record.
Wagner finished 4-7 overall, and 4-4 in the Northeast Conference, this past season.

Terrell Owens could return for Cowboys next game
A bye week will allow Terrell Owens broken hand to recover just in time for the next game the Dallas Cowboys are slated to play, according to reports. MySportsbook.com, an football sportsbook, has posted football betting lines on TO playing.
Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday. Although Owens' hand was swollen and aching Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said he's optimistic the receiver will be back at work next week and catching passes a week from Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.
MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.
"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."
Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
