Even if they find that MSU paid him, which they haven't as of now, Auburn is still in the clear.


Actually if discovered MSU paid him they could rule him retroactively ineligible, now this wouldn't hurt Auburn from a punishment standpoint except if they knew. But they could still be forced to vacate wins.

See the Albert Means case, and how he was allowed to play at Memphis.


Difference here is they ruled prior to him going to Memphis, not after

If it is found that Cecil received money from anybody for his son's services, Cam is no longer an amateur athlete, he would be considered a professional. And, the NCAA would recognize that the solicitation was successful and Cam would be ineligible.
