Ruthy Hebard, a member of TCU women's basketball head coach Mark Campbell's inaugural Horned Frogs staff, returned to Fort Worth as an assistant coach ahead of the 2026-27 season.
The No. 8 overall pick in the 2020 WNBA Draft, Hebard retired from professional basketball in June to begin coaching full-time. She played four seasons for the Chicago Sky before accepting an assistant coaching position from Campbell ahead of his first season at the helm of the Horned Frogs in 2023-24. Hebard most recently suited up for the Shanghai Sharks in the Chinese Basketball Association in 2025-26.
Campbell appointed Hebard to assist in jumpstarting his rebuild of TCU women's basketball, a program that produced an 8-23 overall record and 1-17 mark in league play prior to his arrival. With Hebard on the bench, TCU enjoyed the greatest turnaround season in college basketball. Hebard helped TCU post the largest year-over-year win improvement (+13) and win percentage increase (.399) of all Power Six conference program. TCU finished with a 21-12 record that was buoyed by a record-setting 14-0 start to the season and earned its first postseason berth in five years.
Hebard's influence proved invaluable in the Horned Frogs' resurgence. She worked out individually with the TCU posts while practicing every day. Hebard also assisted on opponent scouting, film sessions and player development.
Her efforts helped TCU and Campbell instill a championship culture that has transformed the Horned Frogs into a national power. Over the last two seasons, TCU has competed to a 66-10 overall record, won three Big 12 titles, notched back-to-back Elite Eight appearances and finished with the No. 6 year-end national ranking in consecutive seasons.
Campbell and Hebard have maintained a relationship for nearly 15 years. He first recruited the 6-4 forward out of West Valley High School in Fairbanks, Alaska during his tenure as associate head coach at Oregon. There, Campbell and TCU associate head coach Xavier Lopez mentored Hebard into a four-time All-Pac-12 player and three-time All-American. Hebard twice won the Katrina McClain Award, given annually to the nation's best power forward, and was a unanimous first team All-American as a senior.
Paralleling with their work at TCU, Hebard, Campbell and Lopez ushered in the greatest era in the history of Oregon women's basketball. The trio reached the NCAA quarterfinals in three straight seasons from 2017-19 and led the Ducks to their first-ever Final Four in 2019. Hebard was the nation's most dominant power forward on a 2019-20 Oregon squad that was 31-2 overall and destined to win a national championship before the coronavirus forced the cancellation of the NCAA Tournament.
Her name is immortalized in Oregon women's basketball lore. She is both the Oregon and Pac-12 all-time leader in career field goal percentage (.651). Hebard is also the NCAA record holder for consecutive field goals made with 33. Hebard remains the Ducks' active leader in career field goals made (987) and is one of only five Oregon players to exceed 2,000 career points and 1,000 career rebounds. She ranks second in Oregon program history in points (2,368), double-figure scoring games (123) and games played (144).
Hebard was one of three top 10 selections in the 2020 WNBA Draft that Campbell mentored. She was joined by top overall pick Sabrina Ionescu and No. 2 draft choice Satou Sabally. The "Big Three" of Ionescu, Sabally and Hebard marked the seventh time a trio of players from the same team were selected in the top 10 of the same WNBA Draft.
She suited up for the Chicago Sky for the entirety of her WNBA career. Hebard tallied 429 points, 305 rebounds, 43 steals and 38 blocks across 95 career games played. She averaged a career-high 16.8 minutes, 5.8 points and 4.4 rebounds per outing during Chicago's run to the WNBA Championship.
Hebard was signed to a training camp contract by the Minnesota Lynx in February of 2024 during her debut campaign as an assistant coach.
She also played overseas for Nesibe Aydin, Passalacqua Ragusa, KSC Szekszárd and VBW Gdynia.
Hebard and her husband, Logan were married in 2025. Together, they have a son, Xzavier.
