They broke ground on March 24. The Miami ACCT game was March 11. The UK game was on March 20. If Bz was hired as quickly after the UK game as he was after the championship game, we could have avoided it.
I don't think that is the case. His buyout for the first 2 years was $750,000. It dropped to $500,000 for the next 3 years, but if CU didn't break ground before the end of year 3, the $500,000 buyout would be waived. It wouldn't have mattered if we hired Bz on March 21 because CU had until the end of Bz's 3rd year to break ground (he was introduced as CU coach on April 4 or 5). The end of the 3rd year was the trigger date for whether the buyout was waived.
