FORT WORTH, Texas — The man from Burleson, Texas, was just about to take a picture of his son with Perry Ellis when he decided the comment couldn’t wait.
Wearing a blue Kansas sweatshirt with his back to a television truck, the man looked at the Kansas forward before offering a compliment the senior hasn’t heard often.
“You’ve been dunking like a madman!”
The postgame remark could easily have applied to Ellis' teammates as well.
For a day, Bill Self’s offense resembled ones of yesteryear in KU's 75-56 rout over TCU on Saturday afternoon at Schollmaier Arena.
