Welcome to the forum, like you mentioned, engine cranking, check or spark at the plugs. You can pull a plug boot, stick known good plug or spark tester in the boot, ground to metal part of engine, have helper crank it, watch for spark at the plug or tester. If spark checks out, check fuel pressure. Some of national brand autostores used to loan-out a fuel pressure gage. You can call and ask. Are there any trouble codes?
