Class:
1989

Although undersized at 6-foot-2 and 250 pounds, Curtis made his mark at Kent State as one of the top centers ever to wear the Blue and Gold, earning first-team All-MAC honors and receiving All-America honorable mention in both 1987 and 1988. He also was an honorable mention Academic All-MAC selection in 1988. Curtis helped pave the way for fellow Varsity "K" inductee Eric Wilkerson (1995) to be named the MAC's most valuable player in 1987 and set a school record a year later with 1,325 yards rushing. A four-year letterwinner, he received the Don Nottingham Cup as the Golden Flashes' most improved player following spring practice in 1988.
