College career
Hervey came into UT Arlington at only 180 pounds before eventually reaching 210 pounds by his senior season. Hervey played four years for the Mavericks. In his sophomore season, Hervey averaged 18.1 points and 9.8 rebounds per game. He missed the last 19 games of the season due to a torn ACL in his left knee.

He led the Mavericks to a 27–9 season, the most wins in school history, and NIT quarterfinal run. He was named Sun Belt Conference Player of the Year and earned all-district honors from both the National Association of Basketball Coaches and the U.S. Basketball Writers Association. Hervey is the second Texas–Arlington player after Marquez Haynes to be named an AP Honorable Mention All-American.[2] He was twice named Sun Belt Player of the Week, on December 6, 2016, and February 20, 2017.[3]
As a senior, Hervey averaged 21.1 points and 8.7 rebounds per game. He was named to the first-team All-Sun Belt team for the second consecutive year.[4]
