During his weekly press conference two days after the Tech-TCU game, McGuire said the number of plays or questions about rules interpretations his staff sent in for review was "close to 12," which he described as a higher number than usual.
The A-J's open-records request attempts to make those exchanges public.
"TTUS respectfully asserts that the requested documents in Attachment 'B' are not 'public information' under Texas Government Code § 552.002(a)," Tech assistant general counsel Ryder F. Smith wrote in the brief to Paxton, "and therefore should not be subject to public disclosure, as they are not subject to the Texas PublicInformation Act."
