Freeman informed NFL franchises that he plans to stay at Notre Dame after agreeing to a restructured contract that puts him in the top tier of college coaches in terms of compensation, according to a Sports Illustrated report.

Brian Daboll was fired last month after a 2-8 start in his fourth season at the helm. Interim coach Mike Kafka got his first win on Sunday against the Raiders.
