Grambling athletic director Mathieu bidding farewell to Tigers

GRAMBLING — Grambling State athletic director Troy Mathieu has submitted his resignation and will leave on July 31 for another job. In a phone interview with the Associated Press, Mathieu said his new job would be in athletics administration but did not want to elaborate because he did not want to pre-empt a formal announcement by his next employer.

"I'm moving on to another professional challenge," said Mathieu, who took the Grambling job in 2006 and has hired seven current coaches. "I'm appreciative of having had the opportunity to serve at Grambling over the past two years and I wish the university continued success. During my tenure at Grambling we had the opportunity to hire some outstanding coaches."
