"While No. 11 Texas Tech made a Week 6 visit to Houston, the Red Raiders secured a commitment for the future on Saturday with a pledge from five-star prospect Jalen Brewster, ESPN's No. 1 defensive tackle in the 2027 class. Brewster is the No. 7 overall recruit in the ESPN Junior 300. A 6-foot-3, 305-pound defender from Cedar Hill, Texas, he announced his commitment to Texas Tech over finalists Ohio State, Texas A&M, Oregon, Oklahoma and Indiana during a ceremony Saturday night."
"Brewster narrowed his recruitment to ten schools last month before visiting Indiana and Texas A&M across the final two weekends of September. Sources told ESPN that Ohio State and Texas A&M stood among the leading contenders alongside Texas Tech in the closing stages of Brewster's process, while Oregon also emerged late with a substantial financial package. Per NCAA rules, Brewster is not permitted to sign a revenue-share contract until Dec. 2026."
"Brewster marks the latest addition to an increasingly talented Red Raiders defensive class in 2027. He arrives as the program's second five-star pledge in the cycle, joining No. 1 outside linebacker LaDamion Guyton, who committed to Texas Tech on Aug. 7. Brewster follows September pledges in four-star defensive tackle K'Adrian Redmond (No. 156 overall) and defensive end Antonio Underwood as the fourth member of the Red Raiders' 2027 class, which lost a commitment from five-star offensive tackle"
