Country star Darius Rucker donates to ETSU’s NIL fund after 'awkward' appearance at football game

Country music star Darius Rucker has given nearly $3,000 to the East Tennessee State Buccaneers’ Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) fund following an appearance at a football game that was deemed "awkward" by the singer himself.

Rucker’s famous song "Wagon Wheel" is a staple across the country, and especially at ETSU games as they play a version of the song. 

The reason is due to Rucker’s mention of Johnson City, which is where the university is located in Tennessee.
