For years UT kept Houston out of the SWC

You are just throwing shite against the wall and seeing what sticks.

In fact, Houston almost was allowed to join the SEC in the 60's. They were sponsored by Ole Miss.

And what evil single SEC school put a gun to the head of the majority of faculty reps and made them NOT let U of H into the SEC?

Were they scared, too?

You know damn well Texas didn't want UH in the SWC just like they didn't want them in the Big 12 when the SWC broke up so UH had to join CUSA.
The SEC deal was after the 1955 season and UH applied for SEC membership with OM as their sponsors. I don't have a member vote but they were declined.
