The schools probably felt some pressure to confirm that they were going forward with the new Fox/CBS contract, and dropped the dispute for now to reassure the TV networks. The rest of the MWC will hope that Boise is in a weaker position a few years down the road.

What is going to change to hurt or help Boise's position? The contract language isn't changing unless Boise agrees to a change, and why would they do that, unless its in exchange for more bonus money?

If Boise State's football fortunes drop off a bit, say, only one division title, no MWC titles, and no CFP appearances in the next 5 years, and there isn't an immediately pending TV deal that the rest of the league wants to cash in on, then the conference might be more willing to fight it out, to dare Boise to either take it to court or leave the conference.
