This key Rutgers transfer addition among 100 best players in college football, national outlet says

Rutgers has one of the top 100 players in college football. That is according to ESPN, which listed senior defensive end Eric O'Neill as the 84th-best player in the country ahead of the 2024 season. Here is the rationale behind the pick from ESPN's Paolo Uggetti: One of Rutgers' biggest additions in the offseason, O'Neill comes from James Madison after a standout campaign with the Dukes. The 6-3, 255-pound end was a force to be reckoned with and set the pace for a stingy JMU defense that led the nation in turnover margins last year." The Staten Island native transferred to Rutgers — a school he dreamed of playing for as an under-the-radar recruit at Paramus Catholic — after a standout career at the FCS and Group of Five levels. During his lone season with James Madison last year, the 6-foot-3, 250-pounder posted 58 quarterback pressures, 52 tackles, 18.5 tackles for loss (t-6th nationally), 13 sacks (fourth nationally), three pass breakups and an interception returned for a touchdown across 589 snaps in 13 games. O'Neill finished as the eighth-highest graded defensive end in Division I football this fall, per PFF. 'Really, really productive,' head coach Greg Schiano said of O'Neill in the spring. Rutgers will hope that he is the solution to its long-time lack of a pass rush. The Scarlet Knights mustered just 20 sacks in the 2024 season (t-94th nationally), averaging 1.7 sacks per game (t-91st nationally), and have not had a player with five sacks or more in a season since Julian Pinnix-Odrick in 2016 (5).
