UO Trustees require Coltrane to cut athletic costs. Mullens, coaches must obey Code of Ethics

The chances any of this will ever happen are not large. This “Code of Ethics” is not in the contracts for Mullens, Helfrich, or Altman, and I’m guessing their agents would protest any effort to include it.
