You want to stop all of this nonsense at the college level with these two sports, then make minor leagues where the guys who are interested in earning money and don't want to go to class or care about a college education can play and make money.
To make that happen you'd have to get the NFL to endorse it and participate financially where as currently their farm system is completely free. Why would they pay for something they currently get free?
Also the big University's that make money on football, which then funds the non revenue sports, aren't just going to let that money go. What would be in it for them?
Even if you could force it from above somehow, things that make organizations participate in direct conflict of their own financial best interest don't usually go all that well or last all that long.
Unfortunately I don't think there are any simple answers to this stuff.
