Jamie Dixon didn't give up hope, not when Pittsburgh lost to Wagner. Not when Rutgers held the Panthers to all of 39 points. Not when the program's longest losing streak in well over a decade sent it tumbling to the bottom of the Big East. The coach kept insisting the Panthers would be OK when they got healthy. It took longer -- a lot longer -- than Dixon expected. Turns out, he might be right. Nasir Robinson scored 23 points and made all nine of his field goal attempts to lead Pitt past Georgetown (No. 10 ESPN/USA Today, No. 9 AP) 72-60 on Saturday.
