I've found a site, fantasy sports pools, that can host a NCAA Wrestling Pool. Cost is $25 to host the league. Any ideas for rules, payout, etc.?

Brady - I think it's fun to pick all 12 seeds, and you must represent all 10 weights.
I like this format because not everyone can pick chalk. Makes it fun to research the underdogs, draws, etc.
I'm in, whatever we decide.

Here are the NCAA Wrestling Pool rules as set up by the website.
Official League Rules
Rosters/Salary Cap:
1. Each roster must have exactly one wrestler at every weight class.
2. Each roster must stay below the allotted salary cap of 1,000 pts.
3. There is no minimum for the total salary cap used.
4. Each wrestler ranking slot will be allotted a set amount of points. Those points are listed here:
1st – 196 points
2nd - 148 points
3rd - 139 points
4th - 129 points
5th - 117 points
6th - 107 points
7th - 93 points
8th - 87 points
9th - 78 points
10th - 71 points
11th - 59 points
12th - 45 points
13th - 38 points
14th - 31 points
15th - 26 points
16th THRU 20th – 10 points
Unranked – 5 points
5. Withdrawal Rule - Once the deadline hits for adding or changing teams, you not be allowed to modify your lineup. You will have until the official starting time of the first round of the NCAA National Wrestling Tournament to add rosters or make changes to existing rosters. If a wrestler withdraws from the tournament prior to its start, and that wrestler is on your roster, you will not receive any points for that weight class. Therefore, you should make a final check of your rosters prior to the submission deadline to insure you don’t have this issue. We will no longer automatically insert the next ranked wrestler at that weight into your lineup for you.
Tiebreakers
1. Each roster must have a tie-breaker selected.
2. In the event of a tie between two or more rosters, the winner will be determined based on the following criteria in this order
Tie-breaker Team Champion: The roster with the highest placed tie-breaker team champion wins
Tie-breaker Team Champion Points: The roster with the closest team champion points to the NCAA team champion wins.
Individual Champions: The roster with the most NCAA National Champions wins.
Individual All-Americans: The roster with the most NCAA All-Americans (top 8 place finishers) wins.
Lower Salary Cap: The roster that used the least amount of points toward their salary cap wins.
Earliest Submission: The roster created and finalized the earliest wins.
Scoring
1. Scoring for each wrestler is based on the official NCAA wrestling tournament team scoring rules.
2. Placement Points – wrestlers earn placement points for finishing in 1st through 8th place.
1st place: 16 points
2nd place: 12 points
3rd place: 10 points
4th place: 9 points
5th place: 7 points
6th place: 6 points
7th place: 4 points
8th place: 3 points
3. Advancement Points – wrestlers earn advancement points if they win.
Each advancement in the championship bracket is worth 1 point
Each advancement in the consolation bracket is worth .5 points
If a wrestler has a bye and wins his very next match, he will earn an advancement point for the bye.
If a wrestler has a bye and loses his very next match, he will not earn any advancement point(s).
Each wrestler who is not in a pigtail match in either the championship or consolation bracket is considered to have received a bye since they didn’t wrestle a pigtail match. If those wrestler go on to win their first match, they will receive 2 advancement points due to the bye.
If the losing wrestler in the championship bracket pigtail match wins his wrestleback match, he will earn an additional .5 advancement points due to a bye. This bye is not shown on the NCAA brackets due to space constraints.
4. Bonus Points – wrestlers earn bonus points for certain types of victores.
Each fall, forfeit, default, disqualification: 2 points
Each tech fall (w/ near fall points): 1.5 points
Each tech fall (w/o near fall points): 1 point
Each major decision: 1 point
5. Deduction Points
If a wrestler is deducted a team point(s) in the team scoring by the NCAA he will also be deducted a point(s) in our pool.
If a coach is deducted a team point, the NCAA assigns that deduction to the wrestler competing for that coach when the deduction occurred.
Scoring follows the NCAA scores the team race.
Wrestler Rankings
1. We will be using the latest available rankings from Amateur Wrestling News at the time the NCAA bracket is released.
Owner Entries
1. Each league can specify the maximum number of entries each owner can submit with a website maximum of 9.
2. All entries will be named according to the owner’s first and last names and a number representing the chronological order of submitted rosters (i.e. John Doe 1, John Doe 2, John Doe 3).

Looking at the "rosters", you must (and can only) pick one guy per weight class. Tie-breaker is selecting team winner and their score.

tl; dr.
I like the "One per weight; seed #1-#8, plus two higher seeds" type of pool. Follow this guys through and add their point in the end.
But whatevs. I'm down.

You could set the "pick a guy at every weight AND seeds one through 10 must be represented, but the website doesn't mandate that.

Picking a roster based upon the rules listed above, you'll have a wide variety of teams which will make it very interesting. I'll put up the fee to host the site (others can do in future) just lost your email on here and I'll send you an invite. Rules used will be those listed above. We cam decide on prizes (dig bets, etc). I'll begin sending out invited Monday.

I'm interested although this seems a bit convoluted."

Not convoluted once you look at the website. You get a set number of points to pick your team. Each seed "costs" a certain # of points to pick. You pick your team at they score just like normal tournament scoring. Best thing about it is the website does all the scoring for us.
Just sent out first three invites. Pat this is your chance to beat Rex in a wrestling venue. :)
