Brewer was a three-year starter at quarterback for Lubbock, and capped his career by leading the Westerners to a 13-0 record in 1951 and the 4A state championship.

Brewer went on to sign with Texas and played quarterback for the Longhorns from 1953-1955, earning all-SWC recognition in '53. His son, Robert Brewer, played quarterback for UT in 1981-82, and led the Longhorns to a 14-12 win over No. 3 Alabama in the 1982 Cotton Bowl.
