The University of Wisconsin men's basketball team considered boycotting a game during the 2016-17 season to protest NCAA rules regarding athlete compensation.
Former Badgers forward Nigel Hayes told USA Today's Steve Berkowitz most of the team was in support of sitting out a Nov. 29 game against Syracuse that was broadcast on ESPN:
“I knew 90 percent of the guys were on board from the get-go, before I asked the question. But I let them know that if one of you guys says no, we won't do it because, obviously, we're a team and we're going to stick together.
