They are paid. They work hard and bust their arse on the field and are repaid with a full ride scholarship. Media exposure and a chance to make it to the next level for millions. O yea and a degree of their choice. that's pretty substantial payment IMO

Bingo. Everyone needs to stop crying. They're not slaves being forced into football. They know it takes lots of time outside of classes to play football by the time they get to college.

Paying players wouldn't solve anything, there'd still be the occasional dirty dealings to pay better players more than the others.
