People are comparing this to Gov. Ann Richards "forcing" the Big 12 to take Baylor, but it is a very different situation. In Baylor's case, it was "take Baylor or these three state schools aren't coming." There is no similar threat with UH.
Are we sure it was Richards and not Bob Bullock forcing Texas Tech and Baylor on the conference?

No, I'm no historian and it might well have been Bullock rather than Richards. Point stands, though. Texas state government doesn't have a big stick (or any stick) this time.
