Colts have decided who to take with the No. 1 draft pick. They’re just not planning to let the secret out until April 26. Team owner Jim Irsay has repeatedly said the team will choose Peyton Manning’s successor, presumably either Stanford’s Andrew Luck or Baylor’s Robert Griffin III, the Heisman Trophy winner. If the Colts take Luck, the Washington Redskins are expected to take Griffin with the second pick next Thursday night.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) – The Indianapolis Colts have decided who to take with the No. 1 draft pick. They’re just not planning to let the secret out until April 26. After months of speculation, scouting and scrutinizing, Colts general manager Ryan Grigson finally told reporters Wednesday that the Colts have a plan for their first No. 1 overall selection in 14 years. “We’ve known for a little while. We’ve done all our due diligence,” Grigson said during a 30-minute news conference. “Unless there’s an unforeseen problem or something like that, we know what we’re doing.” Team owner Jim Irsay has repeatedly said the team will choose Peyton Manning’s successor, presumably either Stanford’s Andrew Luck or Baylor’s Robert Griffin III, the Heisman Trophy winner. If the Colts take Luck, the Washington Redskins are expected to take Griffin with the second pick next Thursday night.

Luck was expected to go No. 1 in 2011 before returning to school for his fourth college season. His resume looks like an exact replica of Manning’s – both stayed in school one year longer than expected, both finished as Heisman Trophy runner-ups and both had fathers who played quarterback in the NFL. While the Colts sent a larger contingent of scouts to Griffin’s pro day in Texas than Luck’s pro day at Stanford, Luck had a personal workout for the Colts and traveled to Indianapolis for a personal interview. Griffin was advised by his agent to do neither and, apparently, it wasn’t the only reason Griffin didn’t come to town. “You get to a point where you know what you’re going to do,” Grigson said. Grigson would not say whether the Colts have started negotiating with either player. In an email sent to The Associated Press, Luck’s agent, Will Wilson,

declined to comment on whether the Colts had told him of their decision or whether contract talks had begun. Luck’s father, Oliver, also did not provide those answers. Luck has been attending classes at Stanford, and is trying to finish one architectural course that is offered only in the spring. “I have not had any communication with any of the folks with the Colts. I stay out of all that,” Oliver Luck said in a phone interview. “And I’ll keep my conversations with Andrew private.” Whether the Colts would start talking about a contract over the next week, in hopes of having a deal in place before next Thursday, remains unclear. “We’ve kicked it around. I don’t know what the true advantage is to go early,” Grigson said. “At this point, we’re focused on picking the guys.” The Colts are still trying to figure out where they are in their massive offseason overhaul, too.

Grigson’s comments came less than an hour after the Colts wrapped up another voluntary workout at the team complex, a practice that included perennial Pro Bowl receiver Reggie Wayne, who usually stays in Miami for workouts until the team’s mandatory offseason mini-camp. Wayne altered his traditional plans because of all the changes Indy has made. Grigson replaced the father-son front office tandem of Bill and Chris Polian in January, then brought in new coach Chuck Pagano to replace the fired Jim Caldwell. Pagano has almost an entirely new staff, and some players have even found new spots for their lockers. The biggest change, of course, is not seeing No. 18 around town. Manning was released March 7, a move designed to help quicken the rebuilding process, and eventually signed with Denver. Two days later, the Colts cut a handful of

other veterans including defensive captains Gary Brackett and Melvin Bullitt, Pro Bowl tight end Dallas Clark and running back Joseph Addai. Longtime center Jeff Saturday, emerging receiver Pierre Garcon and backup tight end Jacob Tamme all left in free agency. And those who returned, like Wayne, are still trying to get acclimated to their new surroundings. “I’m moving around, can you believe that? It’s the first time in 11 years.” Wayne said, drawing laughter. “My game plan is the same whoever throws the ball – catch and make something happen with it. I met Drew Stanton, I know that guy.” By next week, Wayne will have to introduce himself to another new quarterback. Until then, he’ll be catching passes from someone else. “I don’t know his name,” Wayne said when asked about quarterback Trevor Vittatoe. “I know

it starts with a V.” Inside the locker room, players are content to stay out of the great draft debate. Most have only seen Luck or Griffin play in small bits on television, and nobody wanted to debate the merits of how the new quarterback would fit in with a team that is trying to replace Manning and starting almost completely over. Instead, they’re trying to get their minds wrapped around a playbook that Wayne described as Greek. Not everything is new, though. “I was very fortunate to play with a guy like that (Manning) and you see the work habits he had and I try to emulate those habits every day,” running back Donald Brown said. “He will always have an influence here, him and guys like Jeff, like Dallas, like Joseph, they left a footprint on us and we’re trying to carry that legacy on.” With a new quarterback under center. “I think when you know, you know,” Grigson said.

kentuCky Must reload after Mass exodus to nBa LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) – Kentucky’s starting lineup of three freshmen and two sophomores did most everything together. Now, they will go their separate ways in the NBA. Freshmen Anthony Davis, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist and Marquis Teague, and sophomores Terrence Jones and Doron Lamb declared for the draft in a nationally televised news conference Tuesday night. “We made it work,” Jones said. “We all wanted to be there and do it together like we’ve done everything else together.” The group, all clad in similar blue UK golf shirts, came into the season largely untested before ascending to No. 1, winning the Southeastern Conference in dominating fashion and capping an NCAA tournament run with a 67-59 victory over Kansas in the title game for the school’s eighth championship. “It’s been a great opportunity playing here, I’ll miss this team, the way we played together. We all love each other,” said Davis, who picked up every major player of the year award and is likely the No. 1 pick in June’s draft. “I’m just going to miss this place. We won an NCAA championship here and did a lot. We all did a lot for this school and I’m going to miss it.” The five join seniors Darius Miller, who is also projected to be drafted, and Eloy Vargas in leaving the program. “This is a players’ first program. I said it three years ago. During the season, it’s about our team. You saw it in this year’s team, they were about each other,” coach

John Calipari said. “When the season is over, it’s about moments like this.” The departures mean only freshman Kyle Wiltjer remains from the rotation with a new class of highly touted recruits joining Calipari next season. Calipari said he had never watched the final game of a season until this one. Kidd-Gilchrist appeared emotional for a few moments at the podium and later said his mother, Cindy Richardson, wanted him to return to school since he was one of the youngest players in Division I after turning 18 in September. Instead, he has other plans for her. “I want to spoil my mom. I think I’m going to spoil my mom to death. That’s one thing I’m looking forward to,” said Kidd-Gilchrist, who plans to buy her a watch for starters. “I’m ready, I think. I’m ready for anything that comes my way now.” Teague, the point guard, seemed to be the only player who might be a questionable first-round pick in Calipari’s effort to match his 2010 draft class that saw five players go in the first round led by the No. 1 overall pick, John Wall. Teague said he felt like he did enough to be drafted in the first round by leading a “great team that’s kind of like an NBA team” to a national championship. “This is my lifelong dream to play in the NBA and to be doing it with these guys, we’re all just making the decision together just makes it that much more special,” Teague said. “I love every day knowing I played with these guys and that not being an option any more is tough to deal with. But we all

decided we needed to move on, so this is something we’ve got to do.” Lamb said he really had only one goal after both he and Jones were projected firstround picks last season. “The reason I stayed was to win a national championship,” Lamb said. “Me and Terrence we talked together last year and we decided to come back this year to win a national championship and we did that. Our dreams came true.” Wiltjer, who said earlier this year the thought of his teammates leaving was “scary,” and the rest of the bench made up just 6 percent of the total minutes played this season. But the group will quickly be getting help as Calipari closes in on his fourth straight No. 1 recruiting class. Kentucky already signed Willie Cauley, Alex Poythress and Archie Goodwin in the early period. Top prospect Nerlens Noel committed to the Wildcats on national television last week by shaving the school’s initials in the back of his signature flat top hairstyle. Transfer Ryan Harrow is expected to take over as point guard with Wiltjer, giving the Wildcats the same projected starting Anthony Davis (from left) Doron Lamb, Terrence Jones, coach mix of two sophomores and John Calipari, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, and Marquis Teague. three freshmen. will lose 93.3 percent of their upcoming payday.
