In order for that to happen, there would have to be no volunteers.

Bingo. 

I am not even sure why they added this rule, it isn't like HBO has had a problem finding team to volunteer each year.

I get the justification for the 10 year rule.  The new head coach rule and the playoff rule seems odd.  Plus that will pull out a lot of teams.  Teams that have made the playoffs recently are rarely the ones with  new head coaches.

some years HBO struggles to find teams. The year Miami did it they didn't think they would get a team that year. That's why the league has taken action. Because you don't want to keep doing the same teams over and over again. And I'm guessing even if there are volunteers (ie Cincy or Jax) the league might just pick someone else so we don't get a 3rd Bengals season on Hard Knocks. Or a 2nd Jets or 2nd Jax season...etc.
