Probably because 8th graders are still just naive enough to not recognize Kiffin for the slimy douche that he is. However, HS freshmen can see right through his bullshit.

David Sills committed to Lane Kiffin.  Lane Kiffin is no longer at USC.  Sills figures that when the coach he committed to is no longer in the job, he is no longer obligated to honor the committment.  Probably a mutual parting of the ways because the new coach, Steve Sarkisian, did not recruit Sills.

THe WV MetroNews has some reaction to this, of course, as well as a writeup with some various sttements both by local writers and a few scouts. Here's their piece - LINK

Some of the comments are interesting, including this one optimist:

Maybe things are getting better. We actually got a QB recruit that other big schools were interested in.

As someone mentioned, Sills might fit into Holgerson's offense, just based on my own study, so it may not be a bad situation at all for either the Mountaineers or Sills.
