I haven't looked at their roster to see where they are getting their recruits but Oregon has California to recruit. I would be willing to bet Oregon's percentage of black athletes in-state is so low that have to go out of state for the better athletes.
When Joe Morrison was HC at the Univ of NM 35 years ago, NM had a population of 1.2 million people made up of roughly 1/3 Anglo, 1/3 Hispanic, 1/3 Indian with less than 3% black. Thank God for Texas, Arizona and California. The only in-state student-athlete I can remember we really recruited -that we really wanted- was Jim Everett who went to Purdue for academic reasons. If there are no recruits in your state, you have to go out of state or you suffer the consequences of not even being competitive. Having Joe Lee Dunn and Tommy McMahon coaching the defense is great but you still need athletes.
