Bigby-Williams, a 6-foot-10, 230-pound standout from Gillette College in Wyoming, officially confirmed his commit to DuckTerritory.com over the weekend.

As a sophomore last season, Bigby-Williams posted 16.8 points, 13.6 rebounds, and 5.8 blocks per game. The prospect, who has ties to Harris Academy in Beckenham, England and originally committed to Montana State, chose Oregon over Arizona State, Montana State, Providence, Texas, Utah, and San Diego State.

The addition is expected to move Oregon’s recruiting class ranking up to No. 13 country and No. 3 in the Pac-12. Bigby-Williams joins West Linn’s Payton Pritchard, Rainier Beach’s Keith Smith, and Mater Dei’s Michael Cage as Oregon’s newest signees.

With the sign, Oregon now has two scholarships remaining for its 2016 class. One of those two is being held in hopes of the NCAA granting recent Villanova graduate transfer Dylan Ennis a sixth-year of eligibility.
