I know what I'd do up here in cold, wet, deep clay soiled Minnesota, but I bet that wouldn't be right for down there in hot dry Texas?
Are you trying to save the grass that is there & just make it better, or are you basically starting from scratch & reseeding?
If starting from scratch, glyspohate (roundup) is historically cheap right now, I'd spray it hard about a month apart 2 times to kill off all the bad perannual weeds. Makes life a lot easier. Spray green things to kill them, glyphosate has no soil activity, only kills green stuff.
A chisel plow is a primary tillage tool, like a molboard plow, you need more than a harrow to level it. Takes about 12 hp per shank 'here' more in hard packed ground.
As to the rest, anything I say probably doesn't fit your situation.
