O'Neill has done some modeling in Australia. He's excelled in Australian rules football while surviving a "split liver" to become the Wolverines' punter by way of Prokick Australia and Weber State. It's been a long journey from Melbourne, but O'Neill takes it all in stride.

He's curious by nature and doesn't shy away from anything new or different -- even catwalks.
