Not really. LSU definitely slow played Travis. This is not really debatable. We didn't offer him until immediately after Akers picked FSU in December and he was clearly our backup plan.

It's true that LSU offered a week or two before Clemson, but I don't really see how that matters when the hard feelings towards LSU were already seeded. Remember, Juluke was our running backs coach and I think it came out later that he totally shite the bed with this kid's recruiting (like made it obvious he was the backup plan and didn't keep in contact).

Obviously, I didn't love his comments about the "real death valley", but I think his feelings were understandable.
