Curtis Brown





Curtis Brown, a verbal commitment to the Texas Longhorns, is the fourth-best high school player in the Class of 2007 in Texas and the 26th best in the nation, according to the scouting reports at Rivals.com. The other night against Daingerfield, he put on an absolutely phenomenal performance with seven receptions for 175 yards. He also returned a kickoff 88 yards for a TD, one of four he scored on the night.

This photo was one taken during the state championship game on Dec. 18, 2004, against Jasper in Nacogdoches when Curtis was only a sophomore. I know he's hoping to leave GHS with two rings in December. (He's planning to move to Austin in January, I hear, so he can participate in spring practice.)

I know UT needs help in the secondary, but Mack Brown needs to give Curtis a shot on offense. He won't regret it, I don't think.

Even today botanical scientists place the buckeye within the genus Aesculus, recognize it as a member of the horse-chestnut family and are still highly puzzled by its many and varied phytochemicals. “Phyto,” as you may recall from biology, simply means “from plants.” There are a great number of antioxidants and maintenance chemicals found in the buckeye’s pulp. There are also many toxic compounds and several of the substances are downright poisonous. Early Greek docs would skin the buckeye and boil the endosperm, producing a brew that was taken internally. Most often, just as the case may still be today, the cure inevitably turned out to be worse than the disease. So now, we see that the buckeye is poisonous. We also b...
