Dillon Gabriel, Marcus Mariota and a bond that goes beyond Oregon football: Ducks Confidential podcast

Ducks Confidential, an Oregonian sports podcast about the Oregon Ducks, is back with another edition.

Columnist Bill Oram and senior writer Joe Freeman talk about the relationship between Dillon Gabriel and Marcus Mariota in this issue. Gabriel and Mariota are both Hawaiian-born quarterbacks who have led Oregon to its most successful seasons and have a special link that goes beyond football.

How did Gabriel get Mariota to let him wear number eight? What is the relationship between their mothers? And what effect does their relationship have on the Ducks?

In the episode, Oram and Freeman respond to those queries as well as others. Listen to Oregonian Sports podcasts on Spotify, Apple, or any other platform.
