Chad Ford wrote this about Rodney on his NBA Draft Blog today (Insider only I think)...

"We've been waiting 2½ years, but Minnesota's Rodney Williams is finally living up to his lofty potential. We've always been in awe of Williams' raw athletic gifts and his ability to lock people down on defense, but his offensive game has been a major work in progress. With Trevor Mbakwe out for the season, Williams has begun to come on. He's still not a great shooter, but his ability to get to the basket and his work on the boards have caught NBA scouts' eyes. He's not ready to make a major impact in the NBA, but for the first time in a year, he's back in the discussion as a potential draft pick."

Anyways, Rodney is currently at #70 on Ford's Top 100, but its nice to see some Gopher's getting a bit of national exposure, especially with Mbakwe out.

Sorry he has made great improvement, but Rodney isn't/nor was known as a lock down defender.

OUCH.
 

just some interesting things I've seen

NBA Draft express has Rodney at the end of the 1st round in 2013

more interesting is NBA Draft net has Trevor going 13th overall in 2013 and has the Twolves taking Nate Wolters in the 2nd round
