So is the truth behind the theft/assault/suspension dealio ever going to surface?

I don't understand. What else do you want to know? What "truth" are you still looking for?
Well has it been confirmed 5 hat he stole from his coach, blamed it on another kid, then bashed that kids head into a locker when that kid called him out on it?
That's about 100x worse than getting busted with molly, in my book anyway.

Agreed, although our "book" isn't the one they go by.
Difference between Crawford and Starks... Starks actually got expelled, and "drug dealing" if that story ever got picked up in earnest by some anti-ND person sounds reallllllly bad. "OMG ND recruited a drug dealer... what a bunch of (insert choice word)"
Crawford's thing is sensationalized because "assault" and "theft" sound like they do. I "stole" extra game shorts in HS... so? That's effectively what the story is out there... that he took some extra apparel.
Then someone snitched on him and there was some fisticuffs. This wasn't Campbell body slamming a security guard, this was two kids in a fight. I think that's pretty darn common and whether he punched him or pushed him into a locker I really don't care.
If it was something really serious we wouldn't be recruiting him. IMO, his actions amount to minor immaturity if it's an isolated incident.
If Crawford was still committed to scUM, I feel like we would be saying we dodged a bullet due to his deplorable behavior.

This is the "edge" we have been needing.
I would have been fine without the italics.

Nah, I want more thugs. Might actually get somewhere.

If they're not stealing crabs, I don't want them!
The kid needs to get his act together because while he is talented, there are plenty of kids out there just like him. He made a huge mistake and hopefully he learns from it and makes better choices in the future.

Stealing crabs > giving away crabs.
Not picking on you Lax, but as I read that, it came across as justifying one bad incident over another. I'm all for taking Crawford if the staff wants him. That tells me they looked into this and are satisfied with what they heard from all parties.
What he did is wrong and his follow up actions were as well.
