February 9, 2013 - Miami University Hall of Fame Induction Weekend2641 views“When they called me about this and said you’re going in with him [Hoeppner], it’s the only way I would have ever wanted it,†Roethlisberger said. “The only thing that would have been better is if he were here. I know he is here in spirit. I wouldn’t want it any other way.â€
Jane Hoeppner, the wife of Terry Hoeppner, represented Terry at the ceremony and agreed with Roethlisberger.
“Ben said it best,†Hoeppner said. “When I was given the announcement that Terry was going to be put into the Hall of Fame and Ben was going to be put in at the same time, it was perfect. And it was as it should be.â€

February 9, 2013 - Miami University Hall of Fame Induction Weekend2342 views“Going in with him, it doesn’t get any better than that. It’s an honor to get in. But I owe so much to him, for my career, my life, and who I am as a person. A lot of it is because of him. I have always said he was like a father to me. He would be one of my best friends today. I still think about him a lot. To go in with him, it doesn’t get any more special than that.†– Ben
Thank you to MU!!Feb 10, 2013

February 9, 2013 - Miami University Hall of Fame Induction Weekend2598 viewsBen does an on-air interview during the MU vs Akron basketball game.
Some of the highlights:
On how he feels about being inducted into the MU Athletic Hall of Fame -
"It's an awesome honor to be able to come back. I've been blessed to have my number retired, I graduated this last summer, and now to go into the Hall of Fame, it's really a neat thing to do, and it's even better to go into with Coach Hep! I know he's not here physically, but he's here in spirit and it doesn't get any better than to go in with a guy who was a mentor to me and one of the main reasons I came to this school."
On whether he knows MU's current quarterback, Zac Dysert -
"I've actually been able to establish a good relationship with him, talking to him quite a bit, just encouraging him. I know what he's going through, I know how hectic it is. I'm just being supportive and telling him, 'it will get easier, I promise'. (smiles). "
On being a new dad -
"It's really a neat thing to be a father. It's awesome!!"
