I'd love to do more with Google at my university but we couldn't get Google to even start talking about signing our BAA or other agreements. It was a non-starter for our legal department.
We ended up moving towards AWS because they were willing to sign. It sucked from my perspective because we already had such a tie in with Google with our email/ collab platform.
In the couple years since then our agreements have only gotten stronger.
The best way for Google to address this is to sign something with Internet2 and then the institutions can use that contract instead of negotiating separately.
