UT ranked first in royalties made from the sale of licensed collegiate products for the sixth consecutive fiscal year, according to a report released last week by the Collegiate Licensing Company.
A little more than $10.6 million was generated for Texas by college merchandise during the same time period, according to the Austin American-Statesman.
CLC represents UT as a licensing agent, said CLC spokeswoman Tricia Hornsby.
“It’s just anything with Texas logos, names, any product you see out there — from license plates to T-shirts,” she said.
CLC also represents other institutions across the state and country, including Texas A&M, which ranked 19th on the list, and Texas Tech, which was 25th.
