They could be betting (hoping?) that the current uptick in cases will be very short-lived.
 

The Atlantic Coast Conference announced Wednesday that it has modified its 2021-22 COVID-19 rescheduling policy.

The decision was unanimously supported by the league’s athletics directors as a result of the current rise in COVID cases and its impact on winter sport programs. If possible, games that cannot be played as scheduled will be rescheduled. If a game cannot be played and cannot be rescheduled, it will be considered a no contest.

For men’s and women’s basketball, a team must have a roster minimum of seven game available student-athletes and one countable coach to play a game. If a team does not have the requisite number of participants, and elects not to play, the game shall be a no contest. If a team has the requisite number of participants and does not participate, the game will be declared a forfeit. This policy shall be retroactive to any results beginning with the 2021 ACC winter sports schedule.

**Note: It says 7 available student-athletes, not 7 available scholarship student-athletes**


For men’s and women’s basketball, a team must have a roster minimum of seven game available scholarship (updated Dec. 27) student-athletes and one countable coach to play a game.

Hooray proofreading !!

I had never heard the term "countable coach" before this past week.
 
Feels like we are getting close to a pause in the CBB season.
I doubt it. Conferences will update policies to try avoid interruptions and forfeits, schools will test less frequently or only for those showing symptoms or if requested.
