Does Brad know something he is not sharing with us?

If he knew that DuPont was coming to UND, I doubt he would "break" the news like that.
Probably more that he just knows that DuPont is going NCAA-route for next year...and we can hope/dream that UND is the destination.

But who knows.  Ha!

We don't have room for Carels & Dupont right?

So who is our target out of those 2?

I'd take both.  And we do have room, for sure.
Not ideal to have four FR dmen, but they'd all be very highly talented and would be really fun to watch.

I figure this for replacements:

Liv --> DuPont
Wiebe --> Carels
Strath --> MacKenzie
Zmolek --> Boser
Jubenvill --> Lindberg

The only big fish that doesn’t have a jamb packed blue line on the right side is Michigan really from what I see

So I see it as either he goes to Michigan but if he decides they aren’t a fit we have as legit a shot of landing him as the other blue bloods 

(im assuming he doesn’t entertain any blue blood East of the State of Michigan)

Schloss all but confirmed on his last Pod that the last two D spots will be freshman. I think DuPont is going where he can get paid and that is MIchigan or Penn St. Michigan being more likely if you ask me.

I think we have a better shot at DuPont than we did McKenna.
From what I've heard, DuPont cares less about $ and more about who will better prepare him for the NHL.
That still leaves quite a few blueblood schools and could certainly see UM being one of his final options like you said.  Would be great if we're in the conversation at least.

Everett and DuPont win the WHL finals tonight and advance to the Memorial Cup.  Everett's first title in 23 years.
Prince Albert and Rudolph's season is over now.
