Just use the username of the user instead of %wheel

mike    ALL=(ALL)   NOPASSWD: ALL

Adding a user to the wheel group is a separate issue.  This can be
done via the user manager gui, or by editing /etc/group.  As far as
the sudoers file goes, all settings for wheel are commented out by
default

Not sure if there are other reasons to add a user to the wheel group.
Don't think there is any other use for the wheel group. Perhaps
someone else who knows can respond to that issue.
