Wisconsin senior forward Nigel Hayes said he held a sign last weekend on ESPNs College GameDay saying he was a broke college student. The demonstration, according to Hayes, was to?help?future student-athletes get compensation for playing major college sports.Hayes, who joined the ESPN/ABC News podcast Capital Games on Thursday, said he knows he wont benefit from his activism since he will be a professional next year. If this thing does change, I wont benefit from it and its completely fine, Hayes said?on Capital Games.A lot of things that are changed, the person whose doing the change or advocating for it, rarely reaps those benefits, Hayes said. Im doing it for the hopes that if there is another kid when Thanksgiving comes around and he wants to see his mother, hell be able to have those couple of dollars to buy a plane ticket to go home and see his family.Hayes said he knows hes not a typical broke college student. He also said the funds raised by his sign went to a local Boys and Girls Club and that it was cleared by the Wisconsin compliance department after the weekend, when he reviewed the matter with the school.He said he faces no potential violations for his actions.I did it to create the conversation of paying student-athletes. I dont need money personally, Hayes said. Im not necessarily the embodiment of broke. I definitely have the things I need in college, and my family can help me out. But I cant generalize that and speak for everyone. So I want to be a voice for those who arent in the fortunate position Im in. The sign was to be the voice. A voice doesnt travel as far.Hayes said he does have access to exceptional medical care, travel and gear by being a high-profile student-athlete. He said he receives $1,500 a month in a cost-of-attendance stipend. Athletes have money for food,?according to Hayes, but?most of them dont have the necessary funds?for extracurricular activities, going out or even buying plane tickets to go home.Hayes said his food stipend ran out once.We ran out of money on our [Wisconsin] eating cards and dining hall money, Hayes said. There were a couple of weeks we didnt have money for food, so we were just hanging around the locker room and trying to find whatever was in there or at a training table close by. We werent allowed to get more money.Hayes said he would be fine with a payment system in which the best players on the team received more than the bench players.(Former Badger) Frank [Kaminsky] got more playing time than one of the guys at the end of the bench because he was a better player. If we were in the market where they were allowed to pay us for our image likeness and Frank is the better player and gets more, then thats understandable, Hayes said. Its like you would with anything in the world not related to sports. The better you are in your job, the higher you get paid for it.Hayes said college athletes should be able to market themselves for money and take advantage of their likeness and image. If that were to happen, then maybe the schools wouldnt necessarily have to pay any players. If you just allowed outside sources to market and pick and choose who they want, then theres no way you can say someone is doing something unfairly.Hayes also spoke about two high-profile social justice issues. He said he supported teammate Bronson Koenigs decision to?protest against the Dakota Pipeline project on protected Native American lands. Hayes added that no discussions have taken place on whether the Badgers?will protest or do anything symbolic during the national anthem.So far, we havent discussed as a team anything, and myself personally, I havent pegged anything that I was going to do or if I will do anything, Hayes said. But I still support (Niners quarterback) Colin Kaepernick 100 percent. He has a right, and hes kneeling for a flag that promotes justice and equality for all, and justice and equality isnt given to all in this country. Chicago Blackhawks Store .

Blackhawks Jerseys China . Bryant, who signed a five-year, $34 million contract as a free agent with Cleveland in March, reported symptoms on Monday morning, a team spokesman said. James Anderson hopes his vast experience can help him compensate for a drop in pace over the remaining years of his career.Anderson, who turned 34 over the weekend, returned to the Test team at Old Trafford with a performance that showed his control and skills remain undimmed by age or injury. But it was noticeable that his average bowling speed in the game - about 81mph - was some way down on his peak.While Anderson hopes he was simply rusty and that he will be able to generate more pace at Edgbaston, he accepts that he may be at the stage of his career where he has to rely more upon other attributes if he is to continue to flourish.I didnt feel like my speeds in Manchester were where they could be, Anderson said. I felt a bit like Matthew Hoggard at the end of his career when he slowed down a bit but his control was pretty good.With the skills I have, I can do a job even if my speeds did drop. With experience you can stay one step ahead in your head. It is like an old defender in football who might not have the pace of a quick striker but hes two steps ahead of him upstairs.Anderson has been sidelined by several injuries over the last year or so. After sustaining a side strain during the Edgbaston Ashes Test 12 months ago, he missed the first Test of the series in South Africa due to a calf injury and then the Lords Test against Pakistan due to a shoulder injury.But, after a modest tour of South Africa, he was back to something approaching his best at the start of this English summer. He claimed 21 wickets in the three Tests against Sri Lanka at an average of just 10.80 apiece - albeit in helpful conditions at times - and remains the No. 2-rated bowler in the ICCs rankings for Test cricket. He is just one ranking point behind Indias R Ashwin.He denies that the relative glut of injuries are necessarily a reflection of ageing and suggests that he could emulate Glenn McGrath and play until he is 37 years old.The way I feel at the moment, mentally, Ive still got a hunger to play the game and a hunger to take wickets and help my team win matches, Anderson said. As long as Ive got that hunger Im going to keep working, keep improving and keep working on my fitness and if I get to 37 then great. I just try to concentrate on staying fit for the next game.I thought I bowled well against Sri Lanka. Im not sure its the best Ive ever bowled but I felt in really good form and I just wanted to build on it, but the injury meant it wasnt possible.Fitness wise I keep working hard. My practice over the years has gone from searching for perfection to just doing as little as possible. The bare minimum. But when I do practise I try to make sure its absolute quality rather than going through the motions. If I dont practise much I make sure what I do do is to the highest quality possible.The England selectors took a lot of criticism for their decision not to risk Anderson in the first Test of tthis series at Lords.dddddddddddd Although he was fit to bowl in the nets ahead of the game and subsequently played in part of Lancashires Championship match against Durham, he now admits it was probably wise not to rush him back into the Test team before he had gained match fitness after his shoulder injury. He hopes that, having had that Championship game and the Test in Manchester, he should be somewhere near his best at Edgbaston.Looking back, without having had any game time before that first Test, it was probably wise to get some overs under my belt before I came back into the Test side, Anderson said. I think it was probably the right decision.There was some rustiness in Manchester. I bowled 20-odd overs at Southport after four weeks out of the game, and then at Lords with the weather before the game I only bowled six overs outside so there was a bit of rustiness. But now Ive got that match practice under my belt hopefully I can build on that and my speeds go up rather than down. The age Im at, four or five weeks without bowling shouldnt make me lose my form that much.As Anderson matures, so his role within the squad may start to change. It has been noticeable over recent months that Chris Woakes, in particular, has started to use the wobble-seam delivery demonstrated with such success by Anderson and, at times, started to hide his grip of the ball until the point of delivery so that batsmen cannot anticipate which way it will swing.But Anderson denied that Woakes is the obvious inheritor of his art and insisted that he is learning from Englands younger bowlers as much as the other way around.Chris has a lot of skills, but I dont see us as similar bowlers, Anderson said. I dont know why. Hes got more pace, hes got a lovely action, thats what hes got going for him, a nice repetitive action that will help him for the rest of his career. Im not forcing myself upon him.As a group of bowlers we are talking to each other all the time. We are trying in the nets to give each other bits of information that are going to be useful whether its on the opposition, tactics or specifics in skills and we all learn from each other.I learn from Chris Woakes, Ive learnt from Steven Finn and Stuart Broad, we all pass information round to each other, its a really open forum and I think thats how it should be. I think thats how teams get better.Poor weather in Birmingham means the Test pitch may lack just a little of the carry that England enjoyed when defeating Australia a year ago. But the surface is still expected to provide some assistance to seamers, especially on the first morning and with the new ball, and little encouragement for spinners. As a result, England look highly likely to go into the game with four seamers and Moeen Ali as their main spinner. ' ' '
