Probably the former - My thought is that the SEC wanted 2 of the big boys from the west, and when A&M realized nobody wanted to have their back, things got testy. A&M perhaps coming to the conclusion they're not the power player they thought they were. At this point I doubt UT cares about whether their little brother joins them or not.
Also, keep in mind that A&M is operating without a president at the moment since they ran theirs off. Their university system chancellor has been filling in on an interim basis, so A&M is not in a position to be a forceful advocate for themselves since they currently have a power vacuum at the top.
