Wow. Prayers for him. He put the spotlight on high school football with his Friday Night Football show. It was on of the first high school football shows in the nation when it started in early 90’s

Great guy and reporter. Met him in 91 at Covington High. He was interviewing Coach Salter. That is sad to hear. Prayers sent.

Years ago, Ed and Ken Trahan came and spoke at my career day in the journalists session @ Rummel.

Fantastic journalist.

Enjoy his prep coverage in the Fall

Prayers in route for a great guy.


Meet him when he entered Endymion. Class act. He loves what he does and is loved for what he does.

He did a profile of me on WDSU when I was a kicker at West Jeff. He was so great. Didn't have any business being as kind as he was. Asked about ACT scores and college plans and offered to help with anything. Always stood out to me.

Hoping for a miracle recovery

I have a lot of great memories of watching Friday Night Football with friends back in the day. After a home game, it was run to Danny’s Fried Chicken, then to someone’s house to watch the highlights and catch up on the scores of high school football from SE Louisiana.

What happened to Ed? Stricken in LA and medvac to NOLA after several days is all that I have gathered.

Some have said massive heart attack but it's just speculation. The family has expressed a desire to not share many details which should be respected of course.

That article does not make this sound good.

I wonder who will handle Friday Night Football
