That’s the biggest difference between Portnoy and McAfee - Portnoy just screams and trolls, he has no charm. He’s way too combative for mainstream tv. Unable to provide legitimate analytics and respectful discord with athletes, coaches, and colleagues on counter arguments. He’s too arrogant for a couple-hour-long segment. Taking away my bias, he still has no redeeming qualities to draw in audiences, and it’s why he’s more successful on quick Twitter rants.

Complaining about the bias in media personalities and getting them kicked off.

Gentlemen - Welcome to the SEC.

Barstool was Fox's response to Pat McAfee.

Barstool's trolling bro humor plays well in online communities, but not on mainstream tv.

McAfee is bro humor but built more for mainstream audiences.

I think it just didn't work for Fox.

Portnoy's only thing he seems to have is trolling Day and OSU, which probably pissed off OSU, and they flexed some muscle. Protecting one's image this day and age is huge.

It over all probably wasn't landing and it was a easy business decision for Fox.

Just my guess.

It was inevitable that I ask why Fox would put him on air. They had a fairly decent product and decided to FAFO. The above is exactly how I reconciled it.

The networks’ (ESPN & FOX) poor decisions regarding on-air talent have directly impacted what I do before games. I used to do Game Day and then did Fox up until they had what’s his face… now I just turn on the game a couple of minutes before the kick. I get better analysis on YouTube and here.

I suspect I’m not the only one who has that or a similar story.

If Fox wants better ratings for Big Noon, make the name Big Evening and move the games to 7:30 with only Big 10 match games.

Have mundane games like OSU vs Maryland at noon.

They will get the ratings they want. The current thing is not working.
