Today's linkage

Football season is over, but football chatter is still in full force. Today, we bring you a few links pertaining to Delta area sports. First up, here's a profile on Delta State defensive line coach E.K. Franks, written by his hometown Kansas paper: http://bit.ly/h8I05i

Then we have the commitment list to SWAC football teams here: http://bit.ly/greDzX
And we're working on getting a profile together on Ronald Byrd — the MVSU transfer from the South Carolina Gamecocks, who was listed as a four-star recruit out of high school in Georgia.

In other news at MVSU, Mississippi Delta Community College's all-state defensive end Blake Comminie recently committed to Louisiana Lafayette after having offers from Valley and other schools. Here's the link - http://bit.ly/dMaNlT

And over at Delta State, Eli Whiteside — the DSU alum who won the World Series last year with the San Francisco Giants — will be honored Thursday at halftime of the Lady Statesmen's game against Ouachita Baptist, which tips off at 6 p.m.

Enjoy.
