they do... They offer "academic scholarships" to athletes that want to come.That means you can get in because of football then quit. Since it is an Academic scholarship you keep your scholarship and go to school for free without having to play a sport . I know someone who did that for Yale Crew
Cool! thanks for the response. A guy on our football team this year has a 4.5 weighted gpa and is considering Harvard and says he would recommend me to the university
