That is an incredibly astute observation. I also have a strong Pavlovian reaction to the seeing the word "Hello." Not hearing it, mind you; but in written form, it gives me a great deal of happiness.

Very happy to have Ben aboard, another great pickup in Ohio.  Though not unexpected, it's nice to have it official (as official as it gets as of now) and allow the coaches to continue to focus on other recruits.  GO BLUE!
