Notre Dame locked in head coach Marcus Freeman to a contract extension. It's the right move at the right time.

Another potential head coaching candidate for the Chicago Bears can be crossed off the list. Over the weekend, it was announced that Marcus Freeman has signed an extension with the University of Notre Dame.

Marcus Freeman joins Indiana coach Curt Cignetti (extended through 2032) and Purdue's Barry Odom (signed through 2030) in the long-term security club.
