Yep. UT Austin (DeLoss Dodds) kept them from getting the death penalty with a personal appeal to the NCAA Infractions Committee, back in the 90s.

UT Austin sponsored their membership into the AAU.

UT Austin proposed a Lone Star television network that would benefit both schools.

UT Austin tried to look out for aggy by making sure they had a spot in the Pac 10 after Missouri and Nebraska decided to wreck the Big 12.

And for all that... aggy keeps shitting in UT Austin's face.

What a bunch of loser clods.

That didn't happen. There was insufficient evidence to merit the death penalty. Dale Hansen famously bemoaned this fact.

Taking on 50% of the production costs while receiving only 20-30% of the revenue is not a benefit to the party receiving the lesser share.

Negotiating on someone's behalf without asking them is not "looking out" for anyone.
