Following a somewhat awkward appearance at last weekend’s East Tennessee State University football game, Darius Rucker is making it up to the university and its fans. To recap: Darius showed up before the game, as excited fans saw him on the field expecting a performance. Instead, Darius was there to hype the crowd as his “Wagon Wheel” played over the stadium speakers. Odd, to say the least, and Darius recognized that fact. A few days later, he informed fans and followers, “Wanted to let y’all know I’m donating $2,980 to the @ETSU NIL fund, $10 for every second I stood at midfield during “Wagon Wheel” thinking it was as awkward as y’all did. Really just wanted to be there to bring attention to this great program and say thank you for singing our song at the top of your lungs every weekend. I love you JOHNSON CITY, TENNESSEE! #GoBucs.”
