A USF spokesperson confirmed Wednesday to The Daily Stampede that suspended freshman wide receiver Kevaughn Dingle was no longer a part of the football team.

Dingle was arrested and charged with sexual battery on a person over 18 - a second degree felony - on November 17 after university police received a call from a woman stating that Dingle had forced himself on her the day prior in USF’s Holly dorms.

“Sexual battery” means oral, anal, or vaginal penetration by, or union with, the sexual organ of another or the anal or vaginal penetration of another by any other object; however, sexual battery does not include an act done for a bona fide medical purpose.
