Much has been made of the Oregon Ducks men's basketball program's 2018 recruiting class.

And for good reason.

It's the highest-rated collection of prep talent Oregon has ever signed, coming in at No. 4 nationally, highlighted by McDonald's All-Americans Bol Bol and Louis King.

But the offseason wouldn't be complete without coach Dana Altman adding a significant piece to the roster via transfer.

On Friday, Altman got his man, as Texas A&M Corpus-Christi graduate transfer Ehab Amin announced his commitment to the Ducks:

After a lot of consideration I’ve come to a decision on where to finish my collegiate career. I would like to thank every school who’s been recruiting me. I’m privileged to have got to know all these great people throughout the process. I’ve decided to be an Oregon Fighting Duck! pic.twitter.com/RNnFQEZDHb — Ehab amin (@ehab_amin4) June 29, 2018

"After a lot of consideration I've come to a decision on where to finish my collegiate career. I would like to thank every school who's been recruiting me. I'm privileged to have got to know all these great people throughout the process. I've decided to be an Oregon Fighting Duck," he wrote on social media.

The 6-foot-4, 200-pound guard, who sat out last year with a hip injury, averaged 16.9 points, 6.6 rebounds, 2.9 assists and an NCAA-leading 3.4 steals per game during the 2016-2017 season.

Originally headed to Nevada, Amin decommitted when three Wolfpack players - Jordan Caroline and Cody and Caleb Martin - removed their names from draft considerations and his scholarship was no longer available, according to The Reno Gazette Journal.

Amin gives the Ducks a capable replacement at the guard position after the departure of Troy Brown Jr., who declared for the NBA Draft after one season in Eugene and was selected 15th overall by the Washington Wizards.
