Meet Katie Nolan. If you haven't already, here's your chance to get acquainted with her, because she's about to become the hottest name in sports news.
The 28-year-old Farmingham, Mass. native began her media career as a contributor to men's lifestyle and humor websites like Barstool Sports and Guyism, before being picked up by Fox Sports 1 during their 2013 launch.
Nolan began with Fox as a co-host of Crowd Goes Wild, but that show was fairly short-lived. Since then she's been producing a series of weekly viral web videos for the channel's website. And now this Sunday is the debut of Garbage Time, the first television show she's ever hosted solo.
Ratings for Garbage Time are not expected to blow out the competition, but producers are banking that Nolan's sex appeal, coupled with her genuine sports IQ and sense of humor, will create a ton of buzz and content-sharing on social media.
Nolan is considered such a rising star that Bill Simmons reportedly lobbied for ESPN to trade for her this past year.
