Not sure. I am just guessing/assuming that guys like Casey, Ech, Chittum are. Maybe Frost wasn't this year, but probably would be next year

Dresser has publicly stated that he plans to use nil to get at least two guys at each weight on the equivalent of a full ride. I'd be shocked if Naak wasn't on a full ride package.
Since you have partial schollys, I believe you can have other scholarships used for wrestlers also. So that would help there.
If you are going to go this route, the logical approach is to NIL the in-state guys or ones with other scholarships sitting out there, then give the 9.9 to out of state guys.
That does make sense to use the out of state tuition instead of in state tuition.
Yep, NIL the cheaper ones and scholly the expensive ones. Take a page from Gable when he called every wrestler he had out of state so that Iowa kid who got a 1/4 scholarship was boosted to a half to 3/4 since he was called out of state.
I could be wrong but I don't think it matters. The athletic department still needs to pay the university for the out of state tuition and the would have to come out of the wrestling program budget.
Fellas cmon. Dresser and the athletic department understand how this game is played.
If they are NIL they would be a walk on so they would pay their own way.
I know but you can still have instances like the last coach who played the game and had a mess.
Very true. One thing we as fans never need to worry about, is our staff's knowledge of "how things work".
I noticed that Dresser's first year when our guys were still wrestling in the 3rd period....

Michigan sure looks like they are going to rebuild every year with upper classmen & not high school kids
