SMU didn't destroy the conference. It is just politically easier to go after the school without a state in the name.
The Governor of Texas (a major SMU supporter) personally ordered the slush-fund payments to continue after SMU's first probation, I think that came in 1983.
I wouldn't exactly call SMU politically weak at that time.

I think Texas joining would be pretty solid.
They would provide a class injection that is desperately needed. I know they're pricks, but the fan base is stellar and we'd really get some traction in the Lone Star State.
