FAMU players set for HBCU Bowl

Tallahassee, Florida -- When the football season ended almost four weeks ago for the Florida A&M football team, offensive lineman Brandon Curry didn't stop working out. He didn't stop believing that he'd be playing at least one more game, either.

As it turns out, Curry and eight of his teammates who played their last season of eligibility as seniors, will be playing in the HBCU Bowl all-star game. Four of them also will play in the Battle of Florida All-Star game next month.

But first, all of them will spend this week in Atlanta showcasing their talent in front scouts from every professional league. They begin with today's combine and culminate the week in the HBCU game Sunday at the Georgia Dome.



Curry, 6-foot-6, 310 pounds, said playing in both all-star games will be a dream come true for him. And, of course, he likes his chances of impressing some of the pro scouts with his size and agility.
