Honestly that is a story in any market.

Credit card fraud at an IHOP ... enough to have a blurb on a news broadcast, with the perp's huge mug shot in the background .... in any market ... gimme a break.

This could have been avoided if the players were paid 

How?  Plenty of people that work and get paid commit crimes.  And anyway, they do now get a stipend.

Half of us on this board fraudulently impersonate comedians, the other half impersonate writers so i guess we are all guilty.

If the perp is a NCAA Football player, yes. The being said this is a felony charge.

2 ESPN articles, the Hollywood Tattler of the sports world, one Jameis Winston story and one multiple offender story that doesn't show what actual coverage it got locally ... reaches all in comparison to this one of ours. Maybe you're right, though, I do continue to underestimate the TMZ-like state of the current media and the apparent appetite for it by your contemporaries.
