Penn State transfer forward Miles Goodman committed to Oregon, he announced via Instagram. The former four-star recruit is staying in the Big Ten.

Goodman entered the transfer portal March 24 after one season in Happy Valley. He played in 13 games after a shoulder injury kept him out until January, and in that time, he averaged 1.2 points and 1.4 rebounds per game.

Now, Goodman is heading to Oregon as the third transfer commitment for Dana Altman. He will have three years of eligibility remaining.

Miles Goodman is a Seattle native, but played high school basketball at Castaic (Calif.) Southern California Academy, where he was a four-star prospect. He was the No. 99 overall player from the 2024 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.

Goodman joins a growing transfer class for Oregon, which finished 25-10 in its first year in the Big Ten before falling to Arizona in a thrilling second-round game in the NCAA Tournament. The Ducks’ group of transfers includes former Elon guard TK Simpkins – the No. 86-ranked player to enter the portal this cycle, according to the On3 Industry Transfer Rankings.

Simpkins is coming off two strong years at Elon, including a career year in 2024-25. He averaged 16.4 points, 3.1 and 2.6 per game while improving his three-point shooting to 36.7% from three-point shooting. Former Texas forward Devon Pryor is also on his way to Eugene.

Oregon also got a big boost by keeping one of its stars on the roster for next season. Jackson Shelstad signed a new deal to return to the Ducks following a huge sophomore season. He finished second on the team with 13.7 points per game while adding 2.7 assists per game and shooting 37.9% from three-point territory.

Shelstad stepped up his game in the postseason, though. He averaged 21 points per game in Oregon’s two NCAA Tournament outings. He notably put together a strong performance in the Ducks’ season-ending 87-83 loss to Arizona when he dropped 25 points on 9-of-14 shooting.
