Tom Condon, Dogra's boss, went to Baltimore law (while playing in the NFL). Although Tellem went to Michigan, Picciotto (Octagon) to Penn and Rosenhaus to Duke (and Theo Epstein to Harvard College), it seems clear success in the highly competitive sports agent field is not limited to those with "elite" law school degrees.
