question on clutch chatter

Ok, so I was practicing some U-turns today for about 10 minutes. I noticed that when I pulled away I seemed to get a little clutch chatter right before I released the clutch all the way. I didn't notice it in any other gears, but I did notice at all stop signs on the ride home. Is it possible that

a) the clutch was just overheated and should be fine next time I ride

b) by practicing and staying in the friction zone too much I could have permanently damaged the clutch in such a short time?

I'm due for an oil change, so I'm going with full synthetic. Hopefully that will help.

Thanks

Probably just got it too hot. Maybe baked some oil onto the plates. It'll probably clear up on its own with a few days of normal use.
