The NCAA and its members do not want to pay their students for participating in extra-curricular activities, and if it were important enough to the students that they get paid for doing so, they would form their own professional league for college-age athletes.

Exactly. The people calling for paying college athletes have not really thought through the whole concept of this and how corrupt it would end up being. Not to mention the second you started paying only men college football players, here come the Title IXers.

This is honestly the problem with the whole thing to begin with. People are talking about paying "college athletes". No we don't need to pay college athletes but ideally the few hundred players in college football that make universities, coaches, and television networks millions of dollars would get cut in. The average college football player is barely worth the cost of his scholarship.
