Technically they don't. But the do provide preferred enrollment for athletes and then they give them "grant and aid" up the wazoo until school is basically paid for.
ETA: I read further after I posted and saw that you know this.

Who was the poster here who claimed until he was blue in the face that Scott didn’t get an equal opportunity?
Sounds like LouzianneFootball or whatever his name is.

Kid was never accepted at Harvard.
A Harvard coach expressed interest in Scott. That and getting in are two different things.

He absolutely would've gotten into an Ivy.

But yes, a 3.8 and 25 would have gotten him in still.

eh, he was offered very late in the process and was a flyer for a scout team body. No one who recruited him ever expected him to contribute here.

They knew his talent level, he wasn't brought to LSU to be a starting quarterback regardless of what his Zachary High fan club tells you.
