Steve Spurrier calls in to surprise Darius Rucker on DP Show

Darius Rucker got a surprise when he was on The Dan Patrick Show on Thursday.

While Rucker, a noted South Carolina fan, was chatting with Patrick, "Steven in South Carolina" called in. Yes, it was South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier (who is a Stephen).

Rucker wasn't sure it was Spurrier at first, but then realized it really was the Head Ball Coach.

Spurrier said he was calling in while preparing to go to the Women's Final Four. South Carolina plays Notre Dame on Sunday.

Rucker is also at least the second country artist Spurrier has talked to this week. Tuesday, Spurrier tweeted a picture of himself with Kenny Chesney before Chesney's concert.

We're going to bet Spurrier is just as fun at concerts as he is at the Daytona 500.
