Holy War Redux, the Jazz’s Tank Note Era, and a Mammoth Team Ready to Move

In this episode of The Matt Cave Podcast, Matt dives headfirst into a full Utah sports spiral! Starting with college basketball and ending with a full-on plea for the Utah Mammoth to stop waiting and make a move.

Matt breaks down Utah State’s sudden stumble after earning national respect, reacts to the final Holy War of the season as BYU takes down Utah behind a historic night from AJ Dybantsa, and takes a realistic look at where Utah basketball stands in year one of a rebuild that’s going to require patience (whether fans like it or not).

Then it’s time for the Jazz… and yeah, it’s not pretty. Matt unloads on the directionless tank, questions whether Utah is repeating the same mistakes with another volume-scoring guard, and explains why this rebuild feels fundamentally broken.

Finally, the mood flips completely as Matt dives into the Utah Mammoth’s red-hot stretch, why they’re one of the NHL’s best teams in 2026 so far, and why standing pat at the trade deadline would be a mistake. Center depth, trade targets, and why now actually matters. It’s all here.
