New SuperLawyers rankings of law schools punishes smaller, newer schools

In the world of rankings, more info is usually better, but only when the ranking is fair(ish). SuperLawyers is about to release its new law school rankings, which consists of counting the number of lawyers making SuperLawyers from each school and then ranking the law schools according to the headcount.

Nice try, but won't smaller or newer schools (and yes, I teach at a small, new-ish school) suffer from not having the quantity of graduates that the larger and older schools have?

Ah, well--if we start ranking schools based on inverse height of bankruptcy professors, Boyd will do pretty well (but we'll have to exclude our two bankruptcy judge adjuncts, because one of them is way too tall to help us on such a ranking).
