You know how USF coach Jim Leavitt recently got fired for slapping and hitting a player? Of course you do. You know the general background, Leavitt slapped and choked player Joel Miller. Leavitt and Miller, however, both consistently have denied any abuse happened. But in a 30-page report, investigators concluded Leavitt grabbed Miller by the throat, slapped him twice on the cheek, then lied to investigators to cover up the incident.

So how did investigators come to this conclusion? Well, they interviewed multiple players. And guess what, we've got all their names. How do we have all their names? Amazingly, USF's radio station put a PDF up on their website of the report and although they blacked out the players' names, by simply copying over the black rectangles, you get all their names. Even though this warning is sitting on the document:

NOTICE: The names of students contained in the report and in Appendix A to the report were not produced pursuant to the FAMILY EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS AND PRIVACY ACT (“FERPA”)(20 U.S.C. §1232g); FLORIDA STATUTES §§1002.22; 1002.221 (2009).

Whoops.

So here's every player who was interviewed.

Student Athlete A: Joel Miller
Student Athlete B: Ben Busbee
Student Athlete C: Andrew Ketchel
Student Athlete D: Demetris Murray
Student Athlete E: Moises Plancher
Student Athlete F: Delbert Alvarado
Student Athlete G: Jeff Hawkins
Student Athlete H: Mike Ford
Student Athlete I: Nathaniel Allen
Student Athlete J: Cory Grissom
Student Athlete K : Evan Landi
Student Athlete L: A.J. Love
Student Athlete M: Jamar Taylor
Student Athlete N: Matt Grothe
Student Athlete O: Colby Erskin
Student Athlete P: Jerrell Young
Student Athlete Q: Richard Kelly
Student Athlete R: Ken Luberice
Student Athlete S: Chris Robinson
Student Athlete T: Sabbath Joseph

Student Athlete cited in report but not interviewed:
Student Athlete U: Jerome Murphy

So this paragraph from the report now reads:

The Student Athletes whose names were provided by Joel Miller (Ben Busbee, Andrew Ketchel, Demetris Murray, Moises Plancher, Mike Ford) were interviewed. Two of the five Student Athletes, Ben Busbee and Andrew Ketchel, had seen the entire event and described it as involving Coach Leavitt grabbing Miller by the throat with one hand and “slapping” or “striking” Miller’s face with his other hand.

Well, there you go. As for USF, maybe next time you should be a little more careful with releasing information. Or at least not making it ridiculously easy to copy.
