By the way, it was kind of shocking looking at Creighton's roster. I believe every player on the team is white - not a black player to be seen. For a minute I thought I had entered a time warp - Back to the Future - to early 1950s. To see an all-white roster in 2018 seems bizarre.
They have 2 African-American players. Roster is made up of suburban and rural kids from the midwest, probably not unlike the regular student body at Creighton. They have one kid from Colorado, one from OKC, one from Kansas and one from Nebraska. The rest are from Iowa, Illinois and Minnesota. The head recruiter is from Iowa, went to Drake, and has coached at North Dakota, Drake, SLU and MN-Duluth. It's just a guess, but I suspect that at many athletic programs, most of the teams are more reflective of a school's student body than the men's bball and football programs are.
