Funny thought

[HoustonCuse]

I was reading this article, posted in OE's daily links:

http://timesfreepress.com/news/2014/jan/28/syracuse-ready-return-final-four/

I was thinking, can you imagine how mind blown you would be, how many "wait, what??" type moments you would have in reading this if somebody time traveled back to 2002 and showed you this random article from January 2014?

Reading along...reading along...19-0! That's great! No. 2! Great!

Then this would hit you:

But they’ve all gone the Orange’s (not "Orangemen's", but not shocking yet) way heading into this week’s Atlantic Coast Conference (What?!?) games at Wake Forest and at home against Duke. They are one victory from tying the best start in school history (wasn't 19-0 the best start in 2000? We have a better start than that?) and once more in the discussion to win it all come April (Nice, sounds like we're always a contender) after losing to Michigan in the national semifinals last year.

I'm sure our 2002 selves would be perfectly fine with this article if we got to see the future. Especially since we were starting Billy Celuck and signing "great" recruiting classes of Greg Davis and David Thues.

And after reading the rest of the article I would say that we need to find this 7 year old Tyler Ennis and make sure nothing happens to him Terminator style.

Don't forget a passing mention of JB getting his second title. The whole thing would be mind blowing. Makes you wonder what an article from a random January day in 2026 will read like?
