The deal is done: LSU and former offensive coordinator Matt Canada have mutually separated.

The school and Canada reached a financial settlement Friday regarding the multi-million dollar buyout he’s owed, ending a strained relationship between the assistant and his one-time head coach.

Multiple people involved in the negotiations confirmed the news to The Advocate on Friday.

Canada agreed to part ways with the program for about half of the $3.3 million he was owed. He’ll receive roughly $1.7 million in buyout money, a resolution reached by the two sides Friday night after day-long negotiations Thursday.

Orgeron’s next pick might come from in house, as has been long thought.

Longtime assistant coach and former LSU quarterback Steve Ensminger appears to be the favorite to elevate to the offensive coordinator role. Orgeron revealed that he would "highly consider" Ensminger for the potential opening after the regular season game against Texas A&M.

Ensminger's interest in the permanent job is not clear. After last season, he revealed that Orgeron had to convince him to take the interim coordinator role.

Well. Better make this next OC hire count, screw this up and it’ll be the last hire Alleva and O ever make.

Even if your a fan of getting rid of Canada then you have to agree he was an enormous failure of a hire.

You O pumpers can’t have it both ways.

Pretty obvious Canada did something that LSU could hold over his head for him to agree to reduce his buyout that much.
