The Delaware 7th grader, who wouldn't become a Trojan until 2015, has accepted coach Lane Kiffin's scholarship offer. But will it become a reality? After making your vote, back it up in the discussion below.
Will David Sills, 13, ever play QB for USC?

Pretty ridicules...what parent would let their 13 year old kid (no matter how physically gifted) take on so much pressure? Anything short of becoming USC's starting QB and the guy's labeled a failure. This kid has no idea what he's getting himself into. Kiffin's a jerk for doing this obvious pub stunt basically using the kid.
In this present sports society, there may be very few athletes, (and many more "so-called" sports afficianados), that have grown up from childhood dreaming of playing a sport for a certain team...
It didn't matter what the win/loss record was, it just mattered that the kid was wearing that schools colors and playing...
Most of you can't understand these feelings, but some of the older people can and do...
I was one of the kids that dreamed of doing just that from my 6th grade basketball debut on, and fulfilled that dream 7 years later.. (at that time freshmen were not allowed to play varsity ball).
This 13 year old may just have that same dream, and will follow it through to fulfillment....
Hopefully, he'll not get the big head or end up in jail.
anyone ever heard of Matt Barkley? He was talked about being the USC QB since the 8th grade. Get your facts straight people this literally means nothing.
