"I was heartbroken, Mathieu said. "Obviously, me and coach Miles have a pretty good relationship. We have stayed in contact through the years. Just talking, keeping up with each other."

"It's tough to see it happen to him. A guy who has won so many games, that was so dependable in a sense. A guy that had such great relationship with all of his players."

"But it's a business. These universities want to win championships and if you continue to fall short, you have to pay the price."

"At the end of the day, it was heartbreaking for all of his former players and current players. "
