per Dienhart:
Jerry Kill is getting closer to turning the corner in his third season at Minnesota. This team looks noticeably bigger—and more athletic—than when I was here last August to watch practice.
And Kill told me afterward that the players are now leading themselves better—and buying in.
With each successive practice, there seemingly is more definition to the quarterback spot. Philip Nelson had a baptism of fire last season. And, he is showing the benefit of that. He has looked sharper than Mitch Leidner and appears to be the starter. Nelson looks confident in his throws. He’s also a good athlete who shows command of the offense. The guy can move and execute this offense, which likes to run some option.
Lots of other good analysis from Dienhart:
