Randi explained it perfectly!
So, IF the bull is visually BLACK in color - not charcoal or something in between, then it is very logical that the COW is carrying the diluter gene. And bred the exact same way, she could have a solid black calf - just depending on whether she passes on the diluter gene or not ( if she is heterozygous diluted).
