It's also spots in the first year class.

How many spots should athletics get? What do these students bring to the table that we don't already have in the class?

Wrestling is actually interesting in someways since wreslters are more likely to be from working class and lower middle class backgrounds and also tend to be first in the family going to college. That might be a plus. But who doesn't get in as a result? Maybe roll back legacy programs?
