Thanks for the report, @bhbooton. After a few seconds, the course provides the right content as indicated in the instructions:

After your new repository is created, wait about 20 seconds, then refresh the page. Follow the step-by-step instructions in the new repository's README.

I'll mark this as closed but please drop back in if I misunderstood.
