Dave Portnoy Confirms Barstool Sports' Historic Deal With TV Network

One day after it was reported that Barstool Sports was closing in on a deal with Fox Sports, the former company's founder, Dave Portnoy, confirmed it's happening.

The news first broke on Wednesday. According to Ryan Glasspiegel of Front Office Sports, the deal will see Portnoy appear on FS1's college football pregame show Big Noon Kickoff.

Also rumored to be included in the deal, Barstool Sports content will fill at least some of the airtime left vacant after FS1 cancelled three shows on the network.
