I take great joy in aggy misery and them being behind the ball in anything, but their law school has nothing to do with wherever their NIL initiatives stand. Like UT, A&M is going to hire from outside its alumni ranks for its internal legal department, and use top-tier firms for outside counsel matters (just as I'd expect any of their big cigars or NILs collective to do for anything significant in that realm).
Might also note that the latest law school rankings have aggy law in the "tier one" (i.e., T50) schools for the first time in the history of the school, even stretching back to its Wesleyan days. They are ranked No. 46, behind Texas (No. 17) obviously, but still the second highest ranked school in the state. They've made huge investments in the school since they acquired it in 2013 and played moneyball with the ranking criteria items very well. Its meteoric rise from unranked (sub-150) to where it is now in less than a decade is, frankly, impressive. Have my doubts they'll even sniff the T20 in my lifetime, but their handling of the law school so far is one of the few things I'll commend them for.
Thanks for reading my blog. Now back to your regular off-topic programming.
