Q. Will Ole Miss release the names of coaches it is interviewing for the head football coach's position? I have seen some schools doing that recently. A. Robert Khayat, Ole Miss' interim athletic director, said any announcements on interviews would depend on the individual candidate's preference. "Some of them, for personal reasons, would not want that information disclosed," Khayat said.

The interview process likely won't begin until December. Got a question? Call Dial Sports, 352-2810. Dial Sports answers run every Tuesday. A. Alcom State business manager Wiley Jones said the cable network paid a rights fee of $15,000 for each of the two Braves games it televised.

Of that $30,000, the Southwestern Athletic Conference took 40 percent ($12,000) and the eight conference schools divided the remainder equally. That would mean Alcorn received $2,250. -v. Jones said negotiations are continuing with ESPN2 about broadcasting the Jackson State game on Nov. 19.

Jones said the network likely would pay $20,000 for that game. Q. When was the last time Notre Dame wasn't in The Associated Press Top 25? When was the last time the Fighting Irish had a losing record? A. The Fighting Irish, who fell out of the poll Oct. 17, had been ranked in every poll since the first one of the 1987 season, according to the Notre Dame sports information office.

They weren't ranked at any time during the 1986 season, when they went 5-6 in Lou Holtz's first year. That was also the Irish's last losing season. Q.

"I believe a Iqt of people realize that after three years of solid progress we have a super club," Alou said recently. UNFAIR LABOR CHARGE FILED: Baseball owners filed an unfair labor charge Monday for alleged threats made last week by three New York players: Bobby Bonilla, John Franco and Scott Kamienieckl.

i Franco, a free agent who relieved for the Mets last season, was quoted as saying he would "go after" with his "fists" any player he broke ranks and attempted to play while the union was on strike. Bonilla, a Mets outfielder, was quoted as saying any player who crossed a picket line would "end up in the East River." v. Kamieniecki, a Yankees pitcher, said that after a settlement he might throw at players who broke ranks. The three are player representatives and members of the union's executive "The above-reference threats and other similar threats made by agents of the union were intended, and reasonably tend, to restrain and coerce major league players," said the charge, which was filed with the regional office of the National League Relations Board. EXPANSION PITCHES TODAY: Even though there's no baseball and there's no telling when it might return, owners will still listen to sales pitches today in Chicago for expansion teams bearing nine-figure price tags.

Five groups are vying for the two new franchises that are expected to be added to the major leagues in 1997 or 1998. Groups from St. Petersburg, and Phoenix and two from northern Virginia will make formal presentations to the owners' expansion committee. A group seeking a team for Orlando, will make its presentation at a later date. A decision on expansion will not be made until there's a new collective bargaining agreement, expansion committee head John Harrington said.

Harrington, the chief executive officer of the Boston Red Sox, said he hopes owners will make an expansion decision by December or January, then vote on Jeams by February. )JEW LEAGUE IN WINGS: The new United League envisions placing teams in Canada, Mexico land perhaps Puerto Rico and Venezuela, according to a copy of the draft proposal obtained Monday by The Associated Press. The league, whose formation will be announced at a news conference today in New York, would start in 1996 with 10 to 12 teams each playing 154 games. VALLEY MEN PULL UPSET: Taking four of the top 12 places, carried Mississippi Valley's men to victory Monday in the Southwestern Athletic Conference cross-country meet at Choctaw Trails. Southern University captured the women's crown.

Maurice Dantzler was sixth, Arch Jones eighth, Willie Morris 1 1th and Charles Hale 12th as the Delta Devils gained their first-ever title, beating second-place Texas Southern 55-82. "This marks the first time for us winning first place in either cross country, indoor track or outdoor track," said Valley coach William Brown, who has headed the Valley programs since 1969. Jackson State finished seventh and Alcorn State eighth. Grambling's Robert Johnson won individual honors with a time of 27: 10 over the eight-kilometer course. Southern U.

Since 1959, JSU has had only two running backs (Tillman and Payton) go over the plateau twice in their careers. "We always like to get the ball in William's hands because he can make things happen," Carson said.

"He has definitely proved that last year wasn't a fluke. I've always known he had the ability. He just needed a chance." Like most of the Tigers' running backs, Arnold had his reservations about new Run-and-Shoot offense. He was under the impression that it would limit his chances to run, but it has ben the opposite. 332 yards and one touchdown in six games.

He had missed Jackson State's previous game because of a shoulder injury sustained on the play on which he scored his first collegiate touchdown, a 42-yard run against Alabama State. In the last three games of the year against TSU, Prairie View and Alcorn State Arnold rushed for 750 yards to finish the year with 1,082. "William is more of a slasher type runner," JSU coach James Carson said. "We are very pleased with his performance this season. He just picked up where he left off last year.

Our opponents have been geared to try and stop him after what he did last year." Arnold could become the first JSU running back sincj Tillman to have consecutive seasons. run the football. 1 And his running ability also enabled him to meet his childhood hero, Payton. After Arnold rushed for a sea-j son-high 160 yards on 29 carries against Alabama State in Chicago, Payton paid Arnold and JSU a visit in their locker room. "It was like a dream come true to meet Payton," Ar-J nold said.

"I was just happy to be in the same company with Payton." 5 a 7.
