- Former Penn State center Miles Goodman transfers into Oregon program
Assuming Oregon center Nate Bittle comes back for his senior season, he's going to need a backup and it looks as if the Ducks found him.
Former Penn State freshman 6-foot-11 center Miles Goodman has announced he will be transferring into Oregon next season. He'll be a sophomore and have three years of eligibility remaining.

Once a Top 100 recruit, Goodman didn't see a lot of action for the Nittany Lions this past season. He averaged just 1.2 points in the 13 games he appeared in. The Seattle-native was ranked the No. 96 player in the country, the No. 20 center, and the 12th best recruit out of Washington in the Class of 2024.
Finding a backup for Bittle through the transfer portal isn't anything new for Dana Altman and the Ducks . They found Supreme Cookout of Georgetown to give Bittle a breather every now and then. He averaged just five points a game after averaging in double figures for the three seasons before that for the Hoyas. Cook also pulled down almost three rebounds a game for the Ducks.
Oregon is hoping that with a healthy off-season, Goodman can provide some more production off the bench in the 2025-26 season.
The roster is rounding into shape with Jackson Shelstad and Kwame Evans announcing their returns as well as Texas forward Devon Pryor coming into the program as well as former Elon guard TK Simpkins .
