    Jazz Draft Plans, Mini Mammoth Update, and the Sorsby Ruling

    The NBA Finals have us more excited about the draft than ever. This week we revisit who the Jazz should target, hoping Utah's front office doesn't overthink it. The Mammoth get a quick offseason check-in, and trivia is back. Football takes over the second half. The Brendan Sorsby ruling — a judge overturning the NCAA's gambling ban and reinstating his eligibility at Texas Tech — sparks a debate on where NCAA enforcement goes from here and how it impacts BYU and Utah in the Big 12.

    Utah's MLB Bid, Stopping Wembanyama, Utah State to Pac-12

    Could Salt Lake actually land a Major League Baseball team? We open by making the case for Utah as the front-runner for expansion — the ownership money, the infrastructure, the sports culture — and where the bid still has work to do (plus a few team names we'd never let near a logo). From there we get into the Jazz and how they might match up against Victor Wembanyama and the Spurs, then dig into Utah State's jump to the Pac-12.

    Utah's Draft Picture: Mammoth Prospects & the Jazz's #2 Pick

    Draft season is in full swing for both Utah teams. For the Mammoth, the conversation covers the NHL draft, prospect development, Utah's pool of talent, and how player rotation changes in the playoffs. For the Jazz, it turns to drafting strategy, how often high picks pan out, the history of the #2 overall pick, and Danny Ainge's track record. Also on the table: the new shared training facility, and a draft trivia round to finish.

    The Jazz landed the #2 overall pick: who do they take? We break down AJ Dybantsa as the headline prospect, debate whether trading up is worth it, and get into what it actually takes to build a championship team — top-tier talent, rookie contracts, defensive fit, and lineup flexibility.
