Who turned SMU, A&M, and TCU into the NCAA in the first place? And for the exact SAME things Texas was doing. Texas was Philip Fulmer before Phillip Fulmer. Texas was being protected by the SWC. You know this. It wasn't and isn't a secret.
I watched the 30 for 30 on Espn about SMU and it was not Texas that turned them in. It was a school up North that was trying to recruit against them and lost a player to them...SMU and the rest would have been fine if they just quit the crap for a little while to get the NCAA off their back. The problem was, like the addicts they are, they ignored the warnings from the NCAA and kept going. There own people testified against them and got them in the most trouble..The NCAA did not want to penalize them as harshly as they did, but SMU would not quit...

That kid didn’t sign until 1983. All the problems started in 1980 because SMU went into Austin and beat Texas. After losing by 2 in 1981 SMU won again in 1982. Texas was mad that SMU dared to beat/compete with them on the football field and they couldn't have it. Look at Texas record vs SMU and A&M prior to 1980. They had won 13 in a row over SMU and 9 of 13 vs A&M. All the sudden Texas started losing to both. They threw a tantrum and couldn't handle it.
Texas was cheating just as much (if not more) than SMU and A&M. Only Texas got a very small slap on the wrist while SMU and A&M paid dearly. Why was that?

You didn't really watch then because you would have known that SMU had already been through the NCAA ringer several times prior to Sean Stopperich coming to town.
