Nebraska Wrestling

What a fantastic tournament for the Huskers!  I have rewatched a handful of matches and my heart rate still goes up during Lovett’s match. The scrambles were unreal 

 
What a tournament for the Huskers! I thought they looked sluggish round 1 and then absolutely turned it on after that! Wish we didn’t go 0-5 to push our guys to the 7th-8th place match but can’t complain about 8 AA’s! 
 

So much heart shown with this group. Excited for the future! Probably need a portal 149 pounder and HWT. Hopefully with the success these guys start seeing some NIL money as well. Good job Manning and Husker Wrestling! Heck of a showing! GBR

Interesting to see how such a great year affects how much revenue sharing dollars are directed to the wrestling program.

Has there been any firm announcements of how revenue sharing will be split out? I've seen many schools are hinting at $14.5 million for football and split the remaining ~$6 million among their men's and women's basketball teams. 

I would prefer that we split some money out to the Olympic sports and see the whole athletic program improve. I'm not sure throwing more millions at Nebraska basketball makes a significant difference at this point in time. But a full scholarship + $25-50k might result in a sprinter, wrestler, softball player, etc. giving us a stronger look. Maybe we lock in the next Dajaz DeFrand, Jordy Bahl, or an Isaac Trumble directly out of high school if they see the investment that the athletic program is making towards several sports, not just the current profit makers.
