Smartest analyst in College Football....
But he doesn't know when to shut up. He'll say 10 words when 5 will do. He'll talk over great moments and offer his opinion when the moment doesn't really call for it.
Example: Cody blocks the FG to beat UT in 2009. Amazing scene and the crowd is going crazy. Danielson brings up Cody taking off his helmet before the play was over. He continues to harp on it as Cody, who is full of emotions, walks to the lockerroom with the whole stadium chanting his name. Danielson just vomits over the moment.
Danielson usually isn't as bad as most fans say he is, but against Florida he was just insufferable. Kind of becoming college football's version of Johnny Miller.

What's frustrating about that is Verne's call of that moment was so good.
"Blocked again! Cody again!" was way better than Eli's call where they just kind of yelled over each other.

He's great at Xs and Os, he just goes from explaining things to giving an opinion too much. And he's always right. Period. 
He brought it up in the Florida game again. Called it something like "Cody takes off his helmet early game." Seriously man, let it freaking go.

Danielson brings up Cody taking off his helmet before the play was over.
See, those two statements are mutually incompatible. The smartest analyst in college football would have known that taking off the helmet there wasn't a live ball penalty. Nor would he have ever questioned if a missed FG off the upright could be returned.
