Chad Powers has returned to Happy Valley for the White Out game against Minnesota.
Powers was last seen at Penn State in the summer when he tried, unsuccessfully, to walk onto the Nittany Lions as QB. However, Powers did not take being cut to heart, as he is back in Happy Valley supporting the Nittany Lions.

Powers tried out as a QB for the Nittany Lions, showing a surprisingly-adequate amount of knowledge for a typical walk-on.
After the tryout concluded, Coach Franklin called Powers to the front, where his mask and mustache were removed, revealing his true identity: Eli Manning.
