He scored 0–00 in a county minor trial in 2019 and will go down as one of the greatest 'The Rock' have ever produced. Curtin starred in a match in Dingle with his alumni Mary Immaculate College before being released due to his poor college exam results. Curtin continually rejects calls from the Cork senior football and hurling panel due to his ongoing commitment to females in the Black Rabbit.
