Nick Marshall has paid the fines he owed for tinted windows and a small amount of marijuana, but he is still subject to punishment from his head coach.

According to the Associated Press, the Auburn Tigers quarterback's mother, Shalina Cliett, paid $1,000 for the marijuana citation and $100 for unlawfully tinted windows. Now that Marshall's fines are paid, he will not have to appear at a court hearing in Sept.

Reynolds County Police Chief Lonnie Holder and another officer pulled Marshall over in Georgia last week for tinted windows when they smelled marijuana in his car. They found 8-10 grams hidden behind the passenger-side visor. Both were violations of city ordinances, punishable by citations and not an arrest.

During a visit to ESPN's Bristol, Conn. campus Monday, Auburn head football coach Gus Malzahn said on "Numbers Never Lie" (NNL) he would announce Marshall's punishment "soon." The quarterback's citation came just ahead of the SEC Media Days event and Malzahn immediately removed Marshall from his scheduled appearance, the Columbus Ledger-Inquirer reported.

"He'll have some things he'll have to pay for," Malzahn said on NNL. "I have not decided that for sure right now, but it will be in a short period of time I'll have that figured out."

For Malzahn, the appearance on the show was his first since addressing reporters at the Media Days. Marshall has not spoken out on his citations, though Malzahn did say his quarterback knows he screwed up.

"He understands he made a mistake, Malzahn said. "He has been remorseful. Up until that point, he had been a model student, citizen, all of the above. But he made a mistake."

Heading into his second season Marshall is expected to lead the Tigers' unrelenting rush offense. A dual-threat QB, Marshall sometimes seemed like another running back in a lethal rush-heavy offense last season.

For whatever time Marshall misses, Auburn will likely go with backup quarterback Jeremy Johnson.
