COMMENTARY

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — His junior college sabbatical complete, David Sills doesn’t view 2016 as a wasted season.

Yes, he missed out on a 10-win campaign at West Virginia, and delayed his development as a receiver, the position at which coaches think he may have an NFL future. Yet Sills sees usefulness in the time he spent at El Camino College, a few months that satisfied his quarterback craving and gave him “a clear mind” before seeking a return to WVU.

“If I had stayed here, maybe I would’ve regretted not giving my all at quarterback,” he said.
