Should OSU, Iowa, tOSU etc fans be rooting against Nickal in the UFC?

I’ve been “rooting” for wrestlers transitioning from their school career, regardless of where they’re from, to the MMA ever since Diego Sanchez stepped into the ring during the Ultimate Fighter season one in 2005.

How many “wealthy” donors have made sizeable donations specific to wrestling though? Richison, Galli (Rob Koll’s friend), Stephen Friedman (Cornell), Bob Nicolls (Iowa), whoever gave the NLWC $4 million or whatever a few years back, are there many more?

David Lehman gave a ton of money to F&M and USAW's women's freestyle program.

Always root for USA Wrestlers even though Bo makes it tough sometimes.

Alan Meltzer American University.

Are successful UFC fighters among the largest donors at any school?  If so OSU would be leading the way in fundraising.
