The Mack Brown Curse claims another victim

PrintThis time it's former Colorado linebacker Lynn Katoa. Texas recruited Katoa, but he never actually made it to campus for an official visit. That's too bad. For him.
He's flunked out of Colorado, according to The Buffzone Blog's Kyle Ringo, after needing to "apply himself, bear down and focus." Instead he "did just the opposite."
"If every instinct you have is wrong, then the opposite would have to be right."
That makes Katoa the second Buff linebacker to receive the curse.
One day these guys will learn.

Let’s do a statistical analysis to show that the percentage of kids who flame out is no higher if they left Mack hanging than if they were never recruited by Mack at all. On ther hand never mind, just assume it’s true.

That whole curse thing isn’t real, is it?

Here’s what my findings have shown-
Likeliness of decommiting from Mack Brown = (Duschebaggery x illegal benefits given to family + level of attention desired)
Therefore, the players that decommit from Mack (who’s a stand-up coach) will usually be of low moral fiber and not successful D1 players. There’s no curse. It’s all scientific.
Now, this formula does not apply to players that switch from another school to UT. These players are usually lied to (Simms, Okam) by disreputable coaches and gravitate towards Mack Brown.
Likeliness of decommitting and then committing to UT = (Duschebaggery of coach x Pi/Player knowing what Pi is).

Darrell Scott says, “That whole curse thing isn’t real, is it?”
“Hellz no,” replies Jamarcus as I whistle past the graveyard where two female zombies are romancing each other.

You don’t actaully believe in any of this, do ya? Its all just happenstance. Its the 21’st Century, c’mon.

The curse is utter nonsense.
Hey, can someone give me a ride to my hotel?

What does that say about us as a society if we still believe in spells and curses! Its all a bunch of “hocus-pocus” if you ask me! Its 2009-not 1748-you all should be ashamed of yourselves! Snap out of it!

I guess Adrian Peterson is the exception that proves the rule.

Shows what you know. I got a house and a car while Adrian got a used Lexus. If that isn’t cursed I don’t know what is.

Unless you factor in the fact that he went to BlowU to win a NC…

You’ve got Donovan McNabb pointing his fingers to the sky, you’ve got Eli & Peyton with these lion grins on their faces. There’s Cole Hamels singing “Blame It on the Alcohol”,Tom Brady holding his little good luck dog, Tiger woods praying to the ground-preposterous! What has gotten into the Wide-eyed World of Sports! Its crayzy. Are we all that paranoid? We’re all adults. There’s a perfectly logical and rational reason for some of the bizarre events that have taken place. Listen to the voice of reason. Please listen. Curses and spells and magic-point blank-probably does not exist. Telekinesis? Different story. Get ahold of yourselves, America!

Black magic could work quite effectively when performed correctly and with a shaman.

How low the curse pulls you is proportional to how high your talent level really is. Peterson was truly elite, so the curse could only do so much damage. Lesser lights such as Perrilloux feel its effects much more harshly.
