FWIW, I can't imagine the league shutting down for a second year in a row. Last year, the presidents made the early call to not play and could play it off as "the smartest guys in the room making the smart decision" - that's not to say that it was or wasn't the smartest decision, just that seems to be the way it was marketed.
This year, you're in the middle of a season, and all of your campuses are not only highly vaccinated, they also have access to testing that the rest of the country can only dream of. Maybe the biggest thing is that I can say with almost a 100% certainty that schools are not going to hybrid learning next semester. Princeton and Yale have pretty much told international grad students to not go home because they can't guarantee that they'll be able to get back in to the country and they won't be doing Zoom teaching next semester. Brown has just mandated booster shots and testing upon arrival for next semester. We can yell at each other until the cows come home about what should be done, but I'm cautiously optimistic that we'll get a full season this time around.
