Wichtig » umble Thursday with a trip to East Carolina next week

Patrick Dangerfield has lived up to the fairest description of the Brownlow medallist just hours after winning the award, allowing a teammate crash in his roomNat Fyfe posed topless the morning after his Brownlow win in 2015 but any chance Dangerfield would replicate that on Tuesday went out the window when he let Geelong defender Lachie Henderson take up residence on his couch.After a few radio interviews in his room and with the medal tucked neatly into his pocket, Dangerfield cautiously stepped into the morning Melbourne sun to discuss his long, hard and late celebrations.It was late for me, 3 oclock is late for me, he told reporters on Tuesday.Ive been pretty lucky to play for two wonderful clubs (Adelaide and Geelong) and to be able to share it with the players last night and spend time with each other was pretty special.The win was also celebrated well outside footballs inner sanctum, with most of Dangerfields extended family making a justified ruckus at a pub in Byron Bay.As soon as I walked off stage, I gave one of my uncles a call and I was put on loudspeaker pretty quickly, he said.They were pretty rowdy, I think they got kicked out after a while but they were all pretty excited.Some of the credit for the Brownlow triumph goes to family too - at least the Dangerfields living on the Victorian surf coast.Unlike seasons past, Dangerfield wasnt preoccupied with how he would spend his off-season this year.That thought process is no longer there so the focus for me is footy and enjoying life outside footy, he said.That life outside footy will properly begin after end-of-season celebrations with teammates on Wednesday.Antonio Garcia Jersey .

His offense will have a different look with a new coordinator and a pair of unproven quarterbacks, and his team has spent an offseason working under the leadership of a different strength and conditioning coach.That comes after a 7-6 season with a second straight bowl appearance but a feeling of unmet expectations.The changes I made were changes I thought had to be made, Doeren said. Theyre never easy. . Its not a fun moment. But you do it because you believe whats best for the future of your team and your staff. And I can honestly say I feel like I did the right thing -- not that Ive looked back and doubt myself.New offensive coordinator Eli Drinkwitz worked with former Auburn head coach Gus Malzahn and was Boise States coordinator last season. He brings a scheme sure to pick up the pace in Raleigh.But the Wolfpacks offseason battle to replace Jacoby Brissett as starting quarterback hasnt settled on a long-term answer. Either Jalan McClendon or graduate transfer Ryan Finley -- both are redshirt sophomores -- will take the first snap Thursday night, but Doeren isnt promising anything more than the first series to the starter and said both will play.The Tribe will present a veteran challenge. Ranked No. 10 in the FCS coaches poll, William & Mary enters the season with 16 starters and 10 all-conference performers back from a team that claimed a share of the Colonial Athletic Association title.You cant dwell on what happened last year because obviously it was a very good year but its a different team, longtime Tribe coach Jimmye Laycock said. This years team has got to set their own identity.---Here are things to know about Thursdays William & Mary-N.C. State gameQB ROTATION: Doeren wouldnt commit to a specific rotation for McClendon and Finley, but it sounds like the positiion battle isnt over.dddddddddddd Doeren said that the team has settled on the starter and wont reveal it publicly, but added the winner isnt necessarily the starter for the full season. I dont know how many reps well get, McClendon said, but were both playing.KICKING BATTLE: Quarterback isnt the Wolfpacks only unsettled position. Sophomore Kyle Bambard and graduate transfer Connor Haskins are vying to be the top placekicker. Bambard struggled last season by making 7 of 14 field goals, a 50-percent conversion rate that was last in the NCAAs Bowl Subdivision national ranks. Doeren said both guys would kick but wont publicly announce a starter.IN THE TRENCHES: The key battle will come up front. William & Marys line boasts three seniors and two juniors, including three all-conference picks, blocking for team captain Steve Cluley at quarterback and tailback Kendell Anderson. But Anderson is questionable with a shoulder injury and the Wolfpacks defensive front is a strength. Its pretty much going to come down to your quarterback and offensive line, Laycock said. Thats what makes you go.RUN IT: The Wolfpacks deep backfield is led by senior Matt Dayes, who had run for 12 touchdowns and was within reach of becoming the programs first 1,000-yard rusher since 2002 before missing the five games with a foot injury. And Drinkwitz has proven at his previous coaching stops hes more than willing to run the ball, so dont be surprised to see the Wolfpack go heavy on the ground game.FAST STARTS: N.C. State has won its opener in each of Doerens first three years and has started 4-0 in each of the past two. The Wolfpack cant afford a stumble Thursday with a trip to East Carolina next week and a schedule that includes No. 2 Clemson, No. 4 Florida State, No. 10 Notre Dame, No. 19 Louisville and No. 22 North Carolina.---Follow Aaron Beard on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/aaronbeardap and the APs college football site at http://collegefootball.ap.orgCheap Jerseys [url=http://s
