I suspect that was the time period before NSD when the alleged plan to plant stories with the media pointing a finger at Nutt happened.

I think this is correct. It was apparently sheer stupidity on Freeze's part (he was allowed to redact "personal" phone calls from the FOIA response, but missed this one) rather than ninja investigative skills. Nutt's lawyer was looking for phone calls to reporters where Freeze tried to push the blame for the NCAA violations off on Nutt, and just happened to find this nugget.
