Happens in lax all the time. A lot can happen in 4 years. I've seen little fat 8th graders that are studs by their senior years. I've seen superstar 8th graders that are the same size and talent 4 years later. It's great to have a college interested in you in 8th or 9th grade year but comes down to good parenting and keeping things in perspective for the kid. College has nothing to lose with early verbal offers and will continue to do so until NCAA steps in but signing day senior year is when the rubber meets the road.
