Tony Woods is transferring to the University of Oregon to finish the final two years of his college basketball career.

Once a top-50 recruit, Woods ran into trouble while attending Wake Forest. He was dismissed from the team and school last October because of a domestic assault incident.

He is looking for a fresh start, and hopes Eugene, Oregon is a good place to try to find that new beginning. What will Woods' arrival mean to the Oregon Ducks' team?

For starters, Woods (6'11") will add length to an undersized roster.

Joevan Catron (6'6", 245), Oregon's top scorer and rebounder, was a senior last year. Out of the returning players from last season, the next three rebounders—Singler (6'6"), Nared (6'8") and Jacob (6'8")—lack size to bang in the middle.

Woods also will add athleticism on the Ducks frontcourt.

Coming out of high school, he was described as an "extremely explosive jumper." He "changes shots on the defensive end and really pursues the ball when he is rebounding" and "his rebounding and dunks are reminiscent of Dwight Howard."

Woods could also become a consistent double-double threat for second-year Oregon coach Dana Altman.

At Wake Forest, during his sophomore season, he averaged 4.6 points and 3.2 rebounds per game in just 13 minutes of playing time per game.

Woods may never turn into the force that he was projected to be coming out of high school.

Even if he can only recapture some of his dominance, he will be a huge (no pun intended) addition to the Oregon roster, and may help the Ducks enter the upper tier of the inaugural Pac-12 standings.
