Top Prospect Jalen Brewster Transfers From Cedar Hill to Buford

The move places the five-star defensive lineman in SEC-rich Georgia where increased exposure could intensify recruiting pressure on his Texas Tech pledge.

Overview

  • Brewster confirmed late Saturday that he is leaving Cedar Hill (Texas) to finish his senior year at Buford (Georgia) so he can graduate in December and keep academic and athletic plans on track.
  • Because of the transfer he will not be with Cedar Hill for its season opener, removing the Longhorns’ top player days before their first game.
  • Buford, the reigning national champion and a national powerhouse, gains a 6-foot-3, roughly 300-pound defensive lineman who is widely rated as the top defensive-line prospect in the 2027 cycle.
  • Although Brewster remains verbally committed to Texas Tech, multiple outlets report that visits to LSU and Florida this year leave his recruitment open with LSU viewed as the most serious challenger.
  • Scouts praise Brewster’s elite athletic testing and game film, compare him to high-end college prospects, and project him as a likely early NFL draft candidate if his development continues.
