is his biggest asset. He is as fast as any player on the team, has great upper arm and shoulder strength and is strong enough to keep from being knocked out of a play." In November 1970, the Associated Press ran a feature story referring to Hill as a "cat-quick" middle guard whose "forte is superquick lateral movement." The Christian Science Monitor referred to Hill as "the 'unblockable' middle guard Henry Hill." The Chicago Tribune wrote, "Tho not physically imposing at 5-11 and 220 pounds, he uses great quickness to blow past a blocker." When Bo Schembechler took over as Michigan's coach in 1969, Hill acknowledged being "a little overweight" at 223 pounds. When Hill told the new coach he could run 40 yards in 4.6 seconds, Schembechler said, "Aw come on, you're kidding me." To Schembechler's surprise, Hill proceeded to run the 40 in 4.6 seconds. Hill was not selected in the 1971 NFL Draft, and the omission of the "cat-quick" middle guard was reported as one of the "conspicuous absences from the draft lists." Hill noted that he didn't expect to get drafted, although he added he would like a chance to become pro.
