Danny O’Neil is Elite

Danny O’Neil is a competitor.

Standing at six feet and 180 pounds, O’Neil has an impressive skill set at the quarterback position. But going into Nike’s Elite 11 Showcase, the three-star, 2024 Colorado commit, told 24/7 sports he still has a lot to prove.

“Obviously I feel like I’ve been a little underrated through the whole recruiting process and to be out here with top guys and prove I belong out here is something I look forward to and put my name out here and prove I’m one of the best guys in the country….”
