Overview
- NFL Network's Ian Rapoport says several clubs with openings continue to view Freeman as a top-tier head-coaching candidate despite his Dec. 29 pledge to stay at Notre Dame.
- The school and coach agreed in December to a contract adjustment, with reporting describing top-tier compensation to retain him.
- Mishawaka police completed their investigation into a Jan. 3 incident at a high-school wrestling meet and sent the case to the local prosecutor for charging consideration.
- ESPN reports, citing unnamed sources, that no charges are expected, though the prosecutor has not issued a decision.
- The allegation stems from an exchange after Freeman’s son’s match in which a New Prairie assistant coach reported contact in a doorway before a shouting dispute was broken up.
