4. Darius Rucker – South Carolina

While he was a student at South Carolina, Darius Rucker formed the band Hootie and the Blowfish that was one of the most popular bands during the mid-late 90s.

The band may have moved on and Rucker is having success as a solo country artist but the one thing that has remained the same is his love for the Gamecocks.

Rucker’s fandom has definitely been tested after South Carolina endured several tough seasons since Steve Spurrier resigned as head coach.

I don’t anticipate Rucker abandoning ship like Spurrier did because Rucker was a fan before the program took off under his watch, so he’s been through some lean years before. With Will Muschamp now jettisoned, there could be more lean years ahead and I have to think Rucker is serenading Spurrier singing, “I only wanna be with you.”
