Veilleux last offseason, left Penn State and ultimately chose to commit to the University of Pittsburgh. In his lone season with the Panthers, he had his ups-and-downs , completing 94 of 184 passing attempts for 1,179 yards and seven touchdowns while throwing eight interceptions.

In his two seasons with the Nittany Lions backing up long time Penn State starter Sean Clifford, the Ontario native completed 23-of-35 attempts for 282 yards and three touchdowns.

Georgia State this fall will be entering their first season under head coach and former Georgia assistant Dell McGee. Last fall, the Panthers were 7-6 overall and 3-5 in Sun Belt play under head coach Shawn Elliott. Elliott chose to resign as the program's head coach in February after posting a 41-44 record over his seven seasons with the program. He accepted an assistant coaching job with the South Carolina Gamecocks shortly after his resignation.
