Hebert has taken visits both around the East Coast and to programs in Big Ten Country (including Michigan and Penn State, which have not offered). The Hokies represent a major offer at this stage, but they'll want to get him onto campus before some of the other major names hop onto the offer list. The Hokies have put a lot of effort into setting their QB recruiting boards for future classes (with their top 2024 guy in the fold), and Hebert is one of many players that will get the pitch over the long term.

Hebert throws an effortless deep ball, both on a rope and with some air under it, depending on the needs of the situation. He has a good feel for moving around in the pocket (even if his footwork can be a bit busy at times, particularly in his initial dropback). He is comfortable throwing all manner of routes, both deep and medium-range, across the middle or down the sidelines. He trusts his arm to fit into tight windows - risky ones even, at times - and will need to adjust to a higher speed of the game in the long run. With prototypical size, he's a very good pro-style passer.
