There are SOME exceptions, but it's not the norm for schools with both sports from AQ conferences.

I saw a post on a Missouri State forum that claimed our student ambassadors were instructed by the university president to tell potential students we were looking to move up in football. Now, this is a whopper if true, but I have no idea who would even take us. Football will still lose money, but the FBS status alone would be a major marketing tool.
