The Texas Tech baseball team secured its first commitment out of the transfer portal on Friday in the form of pitcher Jack Cebert out of South Florida.
Cebert announced his pledge to the Red Raiders via social media. He is listed as a 6-foot-3, 207-pound right-handed pitcher on the USF athletics website.
During the 2024 season, Cebert finished with a 7-6 record in 15 pitching appearances — making 13 starts, the second-most on the team. He tallied a 5.72 ERA with a WHIP of 1.49, totaling 61 strikeouts, 19 walks and 91 hits allowed across 74 innings. Opponents had a .303 batting average against him.

A native of Tampa, Florida, Cebert will be a senior during the 2025 campaign with one final year of eligibility left. During his sophomore year, he posted a 4-4 record with a 5.05 ERA in 14 starts for the Bulls, earning second team all-American Athletic Conference honors.
The Red Raiders are coming off a season that saw the team finish 33-26 overall and 12-17 in Big 12 play, placing 10th in the conference standings and missing out on an NCAA regional for the first time since 2015. The Bulls were 26-29 overall and 11-16 in AAC.
Earlier this week, several Texas Tech players either announced or were reportedly headed to the transfer portal, including starting first baseman Gavin Kash.
