and Texas bought one with Vince Young, tried with Ricky Williams, even tried with Edwin Simmons. But alas, UTx is still not a blue blood.

I don't think you understand anything about Texas or their boosters. Look at the history of NCAA violations, you won't find many, and all have been minor. You won't find a Cam Newton story for sure.

Texas left the SWC because of all the cheating (SMU and A&M specifically). They didn't want to try to keep up with the bag game..

I'm not sure why they are different, but there is really no other explanation for the 20 to 30 year droughts in performance they go through. They are the flagship school of a state that produces tons of NFL talent...
