Former LSU Teammates JaMarcus Russell & Dwayne Bowe Discuss Lane Kiffin Hire

"I was learning to be a professional athlete. He was learning to be a professional coach," JaMarcus told us.

"I think if he had some time, it would've worked. We didn't have time to go through stages of years together, but I think he's done well at the collegiate level with every team he's been on," Russell said of his time with Kiffin.

"Hopefully that's what myself and the rest of the Tiger fans and staff are waiting on to happen [at LSU]."

The two haven't been in constant contact over the years, but the men have spoken over texts from time to time, and there's absolutely no bad blood.

As for Bowe, he expects to see results right away ... saying when you get LSU, "You don't have time."

"They're bringing you in for right now," Dwayne said. "And I think with his coaching ability and the guys that's there and the support he have from us, the fans, the energy he gonna receive, and just that grittiness that he's gonna bring back, I think it's gonna be right now."

"We got a lot of dogs over there."
