LSU releases terms of Matt Canada's contract buyout

LSU will give former offensive coordinator Matt Canada roughly half of what he was owed over the two remaining years of his contract, before he and the school reached a mutual separation agreement announced Friday.

In an release from the school amended sometime Saturday, the school said it will give Canada $1 million before Jan. 31, and he will receive another $700,000 in 20 equal monthly installments before the end of each subsequent month.

The original release from the school did not include those buyout terms.

The $1.7 million is slightly more than half of the $3.
