Otherwise, it resolves to No. Readers often mistake the date of a recent game or press conference for the deadline, but only an actual departure or announcement counts toward resolution.

It resolves to No if he remains in the role past that date. Readers often mistake a loss or hot seat rumors for a departure, but only an actual exit or announcement counts.

The market resolves to Yes if Miami plays in the 2027 College Football Playoff National Championship Game, which concludes the 2026 season.
