per Sid:
U players impress
Gophers football coach Jerry Kill was asked about who has surprised him in spring practice so far, and he said Hank Ekpe, the sophomore defensive lineman from Lewisville, Texas, and the brother of Gophers junior defensive lineman Scott Ekpe, could be an NFL draft pick if he continues to improve as he has so far.
He also spoke about walk-ons, saying that Noah Scarver, a tight end from Minneapolis Washburn who transferred here from Montana, and Jeff Borchardt, a wide receiver from Wayzata, have both looked good.
Kill touted the instincts of Everett Williams, a linebacker from Mansfield, Texas. He also said sophomore Drew Wolitarsky has looked good coming back from an ankle injury. One area of the team that seems to have some depth is running back, where Kill said he has seen good things from freshman Rodney Smith, junior Rodrick Williams and freshman Jeff Jones from Minneapolis Washburn.
