Coach Cal and the Cats will play in New Jersey for years to come.

According to an article by the New York Post:

The Barclays Center has signed both Kentucky and Maryland to multi-year agreements to play in Brooklyn on a yearly basis.

Kentucky, the defending national champions, will take on Providence on Dec. 1 while Maryland will also return to Brooklyn for a second straight season vs. an opponent and date to be determined. Kentucky beat Maryland this past November in the Barclays Center's first ever college basketball game.

"We are excited to return to Barclays Center next year to play Providence," Kentucky head coach John Calipari said. "This season's game against Maryland was an NCAA Tournament environment in November. It's a great building and a great city. We're looking forward to being back in Brooklyn next season and beyond."
