For what? Worst case scenario is that he would've been ineligible to play and we'd have forfeited the games he had played. Auburn knew about the attempts by the Miss State booster to get $ for him before the season started and he wouldn't have played him if it had been a violation.
You're missing his point.
He's saying past NCAA administrations would've nailed Auburn's balls to the floor based on heresay and supposition. We're now in the NCAA that requires proof (thanks to the universities fighting back with legal action).
It would not have mattered if Auburn was innocent or not. If the NCAA had gotten one impression that they were not being forthcoming or guilty, regardless if they actually were, there was a time that Auburn would've gotten hammered (not to the extreme used in his example, but still). Thankfully, we no longer exist in that vacuum of proof.

But there was no heresay (other than message board fodder)about Auburn in that case at all. None. Only the assumption that since his father asked Miss State for $ that he received it from Auburn.
The last time we got nailed there was proof in an audio recording.
As far as I know Auburn fully cooperated with the NCAA even before the media blew it wide open.
