Country music star Darius Rucker is a South Carolina grad and one of the program's biggest supporters. During the Gamecocks' spring game on Saturday afternoon, they put him in the endzone to catch a touchdown pass.

Rucker said he felt the pressure was pretty nervous, and that his friends were texting him telling him to make sure he doesn't drop the ball and embarrass himself. He was able to hang on to it for a pretty cool moment for him and the team, who came over and celebrated with him.
