Louisville basketball will play in the 2019 Jimmy V. Classic

There have been rumors for a few months now that Louisville basketball will be playing a non-conference game in New York at some point during the 2019-20 season. Now we have (most of) the details.

Via Jon Rothstein, the Cardinals will join Indiana, Connecticut and reigning national runner-up Texas Tech as the four teams who will play in the annual Jimmy V. Classic event at Madison Square Garden. The matchups and the official date for the event — which typically takes place in early December — will be announced later this month.

It bears mentioning that this will be just one game for Louisville.
