It Never Rains: A show about the Oregon Ducks

Tyson and Aaron welcome filmmaker, producer, author and Pac-12 analyst, Yogi Roth, to today's pod! Yogi describes preparing for the Pac-12 Coaches' Webinar in the thick of the pandemic and which coach was, surprisingly, the most interesting (1:00). Do Paul Finebaum's comments regarding Pac-12 players transferring to SEC schools, because of safety protocols, have some merit? Yogi explains his indignation for the comments (13:30). Lastly, what are some Pac-12 beats Yogi is excited for and what is Oregon's season outlook (20:30)? Plus, the last 'The Last Dance' conversation (28:15).

Welcome back to It Never Rains! Tyson and Aaron deliver a scintillating review of the 2020 NFL Draft that featured a bevy of Oregon Ducks who had the first step of their professional dreams realized. The Ducks Duo discuss Justin Herbert being selected by the Los Angeles Chargers, and how he figures to fit into the organization that's without former incumbent, Phillip Rivers (3:55). Troy Dye, Shane Lemieux and Jake Hanson were all mid to late-round selections; the guys assess the recent draftees' weaknesses, and project how they will fit into their respective NFL teams (8:30). It's time for everyone's favorite post-draft exercise, another way-too-early mock draft! The 2021 Draft will, seemingly, host a lot of current Oregon names, including a potential top-5 pick in Penei Sewell (17:50). Let's dive into episodes three and four of 'The Last Dance' (25:30)!

As soon as Tyson's outgoing neighbor finished their yard work (it felt like we waited for hours to record), he and Aaron paused their Call of Duty Warzone game play to record today's pod. The Duck Duo react to QB Anthony Brown transferring to Oregon from Boston College and what his eventual arrival means for Tyler Shough and the club's offense (1:00). Gentlemen, you're on the clock - Ty(son) Dolla $ign and Fentress each draft their top-5 all-time Oregon football teams, who will be pitted in a simulation against one another to prove who the best GM and team is (11:10)! Rd 1: (14:25) Rd 2: (21:55) Rd 3: (25:45) Rd 4: (32:55) Rd 5: (41:05) Follow Tyson on Twitter: @tysonalger Follow Aaron on Twitter: @AaronJFentress

Tyson and Aaron dial up Ducks running back Cyrus Habibi-Likio on today's pod! The trio discuss what they've been doing to keep busy during the quarantine before Habibi-Likio recounts how he handled the initial weeks of the pandemic (:30). Oregon's No. 33 shares how he and teammates have maintained contact (6:00), his impressions of the graduating offensive line and those assuming bigger roles (9:40) and thoughts on Herbert's lasting mark on Oregon (16:15). Cyrus better acquaints us with Tyler Shough, providing insight into the young quarterback's demeanor, leadership and confidence (18:30). How are the Ducks staying in shape (22:00)? Plus, would Habibi-Likio rather sprint 80-yards and be stopped at the goal line, setting up a game-winning touchdown, or score a one yard game-winner in the National Championship (25:30)?

Tyson and Aaron, begrudgingly, pause their MLB The Show '20 head-to-head bout to discuss 2021 commit Ty Thompson's decision to attend UO (4:00). After, the duo welcome the Offensive Coordinator for the XFL's Dallas Roughnecks, former Oregon star and NFL QB/coach, Chris Miller, to the program (10:15)! Miller shares his insight into coaching in the XFL, Vince McMahon's commitment (12:45) and the league's unique set of rules (14:30). In addition, Miller also describes: what it was like coaching Kurt Warner and the Cardinals (18:50); Payton Pritchard: HS QB standout (21:30); playing alongside Justin Herbert's dad & where Herbert ranks among Oregon QB greats (22:35), plus the evolution of NFL offenses and residual effects from canceled Spring practices (30:15).
