It appears thereβs no credible evidence that Marcus Freeman is set to become the head coach at Texas Tech. Here’s what I found:

π What the Facts Say
Marcus Freeman is still Notre Dameβs active head coach. According to Notre Dameβs official website, he continues to lead the Fighting Irish, holding a 33β10 record and receiving multiple Coach of the Year honors in 2024 .
Rising star at Notre Dame, not heading to Lubbock. Recent articles confirm Freeman signed a multi-year contract extension with Notre Dame in December 2024, and major NFL interest (like from the Chicago Bears) is more commercially oriented than indicative of any upcoming move .
No reports from reliable sourcesβsuch as ESPN, AP, Texas Techβs official athletic communications, or Notre Dameβthat Freeman is being considered, offered, or has accepted a position at Texas Tech.

π£οΈ Rumors vs Reality
Social media chatter and fan speculation, especially on Reddit, have floated rumors about Texas Techβs GM position (e.g., James Blanchard). Some fans speculated that if Notre Dame could land that GM, it would be big. But none of that involves changes at the head-coach level .
No official announcements have come from Texas Tech, Notre Dame, or Marcus Freeman himself. There’s no press release, no credible mention in sports media, and certainly no signed contract being announced.

β Final Word
Marcus Freeman remains firmly entrenched at Notre Dame. Heβs the current head coach, under contract, and has no credible ties or pending agreement with Texas Tech.
Movement of his career would be major news, and it simply hasn’t happenedβthere are no confirmed developments supporting this claim.

TL;DR
> Claim: Freeman set to begin a new era at Texas Tech
Reality: Pure rumor. No official or credible source indicates Freeman is leaving Notre Dame for Texas Tech.
