Travis Etienne explains college choice favoring Clemson over LSU

At a New Orleans Saints training camp press conference, running back Travis Etienne discussed his decision to play for Clemson instead of the LSU Tigers. Etienne recalled that LSU initially recruited him as a safety during Les Miles' tenure, which did not align with his position preference. He later pointed to scheme fit as a key factor, noting that Clemson's offensive style better suited his skills, particularly in pass-blocking. Etienne enjoyed a successful collegiate career at Clemson, accumulating over 6,100 scrimmage yards and 78 touchdowns, contributing to a National Championship win in 2019.
