Yesterday, I checked out ULM rivals website. ULM Verbal DE Derrick Alexander of Tulsa Washington was shown without an offer from Tulsa. However, for the first time, ULM verbal DE Derrick Luetjen was shown with a verbal from Tulsa, the first time I had seen Luetjen with an offer from Tulsa. Luetjen, according to some reports, is too slow for DE and will probably end up playing DT. Scout is reporting Luetjen has offers from La Tech, ULM, Army, Dartmouth, and Tulsa.
Hennessey, Luetjen's high school, won the state 2A Title and its most impressive victory was the semi-final game beating Millwood, which is loaded with half dozen prospects.
And, today, the Tulsa World is reporting that Alexander is taking an official visit to Tulsa. He verballed to ULM and had an offer from AFA.
Both Luetjen and Alexander are projected as DTs.
Looks like Blankenship is putting a heavy emphasis on DL, and, as much as I like/liked Graham, a lack of DL was in the 2011 class under Graham. I now count two new DTs recruiting by Blankenship and perhaps two new DEs. Probably another one or two DL might be considered and I suspect Blankenship will do a lot of Grey shirting.

Edited to add the following:
Scout now has a story posted "Tulsa Throws Hat into Ring" regarding Luetjen. Scout list his offers as ULM, La Tech, Army, Dartmouth, and Tulsa.
