Notre Dame Extends Marcus Freeman's Contract Through 2030

The Fighting Irish head coach secures a long-term deal after leading the team to its first playoff appearance under his tenure.

Marcus Freeman has signed a four-year extension with Notre Dame, keeping him under contract for six more years through the 2030 season.
The extension makes Freeman one of the highest-paid coaches in college football, though specific financial terms have not been disclosed.
Freeman has guided Notre Dame to a 30-9 record over three seasons, including an 11-1 regular season in 2024 and a spot in the inaugural 12-team College Football Playoff.
The Fighting Irish will host Indiana in a first-round playoff game on Friday, marking the first College Football Playoff game ever held on a college campus.
Freeman, who became head coach in 2021, has steadily improved the program, achieving 9, 10, and 11-win seasons in consecutive years.
