Johnny Hebert: High School Football's Rushing Sensation & MVP!

October 29, 2025
Hebert leads Texas in rushing with 3500 yards

Over 3,500 rushing yards made Johnny Hebert Texas' leading rusher and the nation's second-most productive ground-gainer last season. Forty touchdowns accompanied those yards as the Strake Jesuit workhorse dominated opposing defenses weekly.

Recent games featuring 300-plus rushing yards demonstrate continued excellence. Hebert discusses defensive strategies teams employ against him, special high school memories, and his decision to remain local with Houston. The Cougars add a proven performer whose connection to team and community strengthens their running back tradition.
