The [[Pittsburgh Panthers men's basketball|Pittsburgh Panthers]] advanced to last season's [[2009 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament|NCAA Elite Eight]]. The team lost four starters, including [[2009 NBA Draft|NBA draft]] selections [[Sam Young (basketball)|Sam Young]] and [[DeJuan Blair]], along with point guard [[Levance Fields]] and forward/center Tyrell Biggs. Guard Jermaine Dixon was the only returning starter from last season's squad while projected starter [[Gilbert Brown (basketball)|Gilbert Brown]] was suspended for the fall semester for academic reasons, although he reenrolled and returned to the team in December.<ref name="Gilsupspension">{{cite news | url=http://www.pittsburghlive.com/x/pittsburghtrib/sports/college/s_640620.html | title=Pitt suspends Gilbert Brown for fall semester | first=Kevin | last=Gorman | date=2009-08-28 | newspaper=Pittsburgh Tribune-Review | accessdate=2009-11-02 | archive-url=https://archive.today/20130131081238/http://www.pittsburghlive.com/x/pittsburghtrib/sports/college/s_640620.html | archive-date=2013-01-31 | url-status=dead }}</ref> Four freshman joined the Panthers, including [[McDonald's High School All-American]] Dante Taylor. Also new to the team was senior guard Chase Adams, a transfer from [[Centenary College of Louisiana]]. The Panthers' roster was the most inexperienced in the Big East, with six freshmen, two sophomores and only two seniors, and when Dixon went down with a foot injury in the offseason, ruling him out until well into December, the remaining roster had a total of one career start.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/columns/story?columnist=oneil_dana&id=4824157 |title=Gritty Panthers modeled after Pittsburgh |first=Dana |last=O'Neil |work=ESPN.com |date=2010-01-13 |accessdate=2010-01-16| archiveurl= https://web.archive.org/web/20100117145151/http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/columns/story?columnist=oneil_dana&id=4824157| archivedate= 17 January 2010 | url-status= live}}</ref> |

† 2010 Big East tournament winner As of April 3, 2010[1] Rankings from AP Poll |
The 2009–10 Pittsburgh Panthers men's basketball team represented the University of Pittsburgh in the 2009–10 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. Their head coach was Jamie Dixon, who was in his 7th year as head coach at Pittsburgh and 11th overall at the University. The team played its home games in the Petersen Events Center in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and were members of the Big East Conference. They finished the season 25–9, 13–5 in Big East play and lost in the quarterfinals of the 2010 Big East men's basketball tournament. They received an at–large bid to the 2010 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament, earning a 3 seed in the West Region. They defeated 14 seed Oakland in the first round before losing to 6 seed and AP No. 25 Xavier in the second round.
Outlook
The Pittsburgh Panthers advanced to last season's NCAA Elite Eight. The team lost four starters, including NBA draft selections Sam Young and DeJuan Blair, along with point guard Levance Fields and forward/center Tyrell Biggs. Guard Jermaine Dixon was the only returning starter from last season's squad while projected starter Gilbert Brown was suspended for the fall semester for academic reasons, although he reenrolled and returned to the team in December.[2] Four freshman joined the Panthers, including McDonald's High School All-American Dante Taylor. Also new to the team was senior guard Chase Adams, a transfer from Centenary College of Louisiana. The Panthers' roster was the most inexperienced in the Big East, with six freshmen, two sophomores and only two seniors, and when Dixon went down with a foot injury in the offseason, ruling him out until well into December, the remaining roster had a total of one career start.[3]
The Panthers were selected to finish 9th in the Big East by the Big East coaches during their conference media day.[4]
