In the midst of one of the worst starts in 50+ years of Syracuse basketball, let’s take a look back to the “good old days”, shall we? Don’t worry, we’re not even going all that far.
The scene is February 12, 2014. CJ Fair, Tyler Ennis, Jerami Grant and company have just pulled off an improbable, come-from-behind, last second victory over Pittsburgh to remain undefeated and keep their #1 ranking in the country. Ennis is the hero, draining a near mid-court shot at the buzzer to move the Orange to an incredible 24-0 record, the best start ever for Syracuse basketball.
