Curry joined the program for the spring semester after he transferred from West Virginia. Back in 2009, this young man signed a national letter of intent to University of Texas El Paso, but due to a sudden coaching change, he re-opened his recruitment and then signed on with West Virginia University. Coach Joel Davidson says this about Darrious, “We are extremely happy and lucky to have a player of Darrious’s caliber joining our program. He is a very gifted athlete, shooter, and scorer.” Currently, Darrious is being targeted by several outstanding Division I universities such as, Oregon State, Texas, Gonzaga, Kansas, Auburn, Southern Mississippi, and Nebraska.
Playing at Stratford High School in Sugarland, TX, Curry earned first-team all-district honors three consecutive years, and averaged 19 points, seven rebounds, and two assists his senior season. He was among 2,000 high school boys and girls named as McDonald's All-America finalists. Curry played his first three years of high school basketball at Houston's Elsik High, where he averaged 10 points per game as a freshman, 20 points per game as a sophomore, and 15 points per game as a junior.
“Our staff did a tremendous job in recruiting Darrious and he was equally as excited about making the jump to Casper College.” Davidson said about the signing of Curry. This spring, Coach Russell and Darrious have been working tremendously hard on the floor and in the weight room to help this new T-Bird become a complete, high-major, Division I basketball player, so he can get back to where he belongs. “We could not be happier about bringing Darrious to Casper. He is the type of player who can take this program to the next level” said Davidson. “One thing you will notice about Darrious other than his talent, is that he is an unbelievably good kid!”
