Dillon Gabriel, Oregon's star quarterback, is known not only for his exceptional football skills but also for his comedic talent. Gabriel can perfectly impersonate coaches he has played for, bringing laughter to the quarterbacks' meeting room.
Whether it be on command or just if the mood is right, Dillon Gabriel can transform the Oregon quarterbacks’ meeting room into an improv stage by transforming himself. And laughs most always follow.in the Rose Bowl quarterfinals of the College Football Playoff on New Year’s Day, he nails impersonations of all the coaches he has played for during his now-historic career.He will nail the smooth west Arkansas drawl of Gus Malzahn, who succeeded Heupel at UCF when he left for Tennessee.
and Oklahoma, Jeff Lebby, one of the most influential coaches he’s had, is easy because of the years they spent together. It’s barely been a year since Gabriel committed to Oregon, but he’s got the Dan Lanning part down pat, all the way down to sounding like the Ducks head coach has gargled gravel and lost his voice. “He can do it all,” Oregon offensive coordinator Will Stein said. “It’s not just the voices. It’s all the mannerisms. He’s a great actor.” Gabriel, who finished third in this year’s Heisman Trophy voting, is a savvy lefty who has started more games than any other quarterback in the history of the sport. This year, he broke the NCAA FBS record for most touchdowns in a career. He’s done it in a familiar number in Eugene, showcasing the No. 8 for his childhood idol, fellow Hawaiian QB and Ducks legend Marcus Mariota. This will be Gabriel’s sole year with the Ducks, but his journey here is being celebrated by those who say Gabriel is among the most unique personalities they have come across in any college locker room. Former UCF right guard Parker Boudreaux is now a professional wrestler with millions of followers on social media. A master of character himself, Boudreaux said even as a young quarterback at UCF, Gabriel was never shy about introducing his true self to the team. The pair had tutoring sessions together where Gabriel not only had Boudreaux rolling but even the tutor had a hard time focusing because of his joke
