Please quote my earlier comment about a “long arrest history”...oh you can’t!?!?? Because I didn’t say that.
Yes, to be correct you said numerous run ins and his arrest nearly got him kicked out of school. I admit I read that as run ins with the law and you didn't directly say that. However, if Alabama even considered kicking him out over a misdemeanor for going to his car beyond the yellow tape there would be an uproar considering the offenses players have made and been allowed to stick around. I imagine that entire issue as :
Drake - "Officer can I get my (house keys, books or medicine from my car?"
Officer - "No this area is a crime scene!"
Drake - "But it's that car right there and the crime incident is over there."
Officer - "I said no!"
Office leave the area or turns his back to address something else and Drake tries to get to his car anyway.
Sure Drake didn't follow orders. Sure he may even warrant being arrested for the offense. But in the big scheme of things and some of the circumstances that players have been allowed to move past, I would say Drake's offense is in line with someone calling an officer a bad name at a crime site. I just don't see enough there to paint Drake as problem child.
