I was watching Gameday a couple years ago with some KU friends and they showed the clip of Denis making his off-the-backboard shot. When the shirtless, muscley, smiling Denis approached the camera, my friend's wife (also KU alum) went, "YUUMM," while her husband frowned. So yeah, he even made squawks go
-- the ladies at least. And probably a lot of dudes who would never admit it. He was that adorable.
