Jayhawks look for ways to get Perry Ellis the ball in the post

LAWRENCE

To say that Perry Ellis is quiet is a little like saying Allen Fieldhouse is loud or replay monitor reviews are boring. Perry Ellis is quiet. Has been his whole life, really, and even after three-plus seasons at Kansas, this has not changed much.

And yet, in the days after the Jayhawks’ 74-63 loss at West Virginia, it was still interesting to hear junior guard Frank Mason discuss Ellis, his Wichita teammate of three seasons. In 38 minutes at West Virginia, Ellis had 21 points on 14 shots, a performance so efficient it was easy to wonder if the Jayhawks’ leading scorer should have received the ball more.
