Morgan Wallen is giving back to his alma mater in a big way. The “I’m the Problem” singer has pledged $1.2 million to Gibbs High School in Corryton, Tenn. to upgrade the school’s baseball field, according to WATE News.
The pledge from the Morgan Wallen Foundation will spruce up the field that Wallen, 32, played on when the Gibbs H.S. baseball team went to the national championship in 2010; the field was renamed Morgan Wallen Field in 2025.
If the generous donation is approved by the Knox County Commission, it will be used to transform the field into a “into a versatile, state-of-the-art multi-use athletic field,” with the school also planning to build a softball hitting and pitching facility on its campus as well. WATE said it is not the only cash Wallen has given to Gibbs, with the country superstar previously donating to the school’s band program, as well as its core program and basketball team, in addition to Gibbs Youth Sports and the Jefferson City Little League.
The Commission has an item on its April agenda to approve the grant agreement with the Wallen Foundation for the funding fore the school Wallen graduated from in 2011.
Over the weekend, Wallen was joined by Ella Langley on the third stop on his Still the Problem tour in Tuscaloosa, Ala. for the live debut of their upcoming surprise single “I Can’t Love You Anymore.” Wallen told the crowd, “Ella wrote this song and sent it me about a month ago and I loved it,” of the tune that is due out on Friday (April 24). “You Look Like You Love Me” singer Langley will join Wallen for a few more shows on his stadium tour, including May 9 in Indianapolis, May 16 in Gainesville, Florida; May 30 in Denver, June 6 in Pittsburgh, June 20 in Chicago, June 27 in Clemson, S.C, July 18 in Baltimore, and Aug. 1 in Philadelphia.
