Until they release information, we don’t know.
16 year old boys often don’t have an appreciation of history.

I hope they plant a new one, because the shoots won’t grow as majestic as the original tree.

Perhaps not, although one could select for a single stump sprout and, supported by a mature root system, it would grow faster than a new sapling.

On the other hand, it would be completely legitimate to coppice the tree. Let all the shoots grow back. It's what they would have done in Robin Hood's day.
