Well, FOX Big Noon Kickoff is getting exactly what it wanted when choosing to add Barstool President Dave Portnoy to its team. Portnoy being banned from the Horseshoe this weekend, or actually the false report of it, has been drumming up all kinds of media attention for both the game this weekend and the show itself.
No, Portnoy was not banned from the Horseshoe, per Ohio State AD Ross Bjork, but instead, as reported, FOX has decided not to have Portnoy at the desk during the on-field pre-game portion of the show, which takes place inside the stadium.
