Currier has worked on both sides of the ball as a member of the SDSU coaching staff. As a graduate assistant, he helped mentor the Jackrabbit running backs and tight ends in 2008, working with 1,000-yard rusher and second-team all-Missouri Valley Conference selection Kyle Minett and honorable mention all-MVFC tight end Colin Cochart.

In 2009, Currier moved to a graduate assistant role on defense, where he worked with co-defensive coordinator Clint Brown with the defensive line. As a unit, SDSU defensive linemen combined to record 42 tackles for loss and 24 sacks in 12 games to spearhead a run to the Football Championship Subdivision playoffs for the first time in program history.

Currier had the opportunity to help mentor All-America defensive end Danny Batten, who was honored as Co-Missouri Valley Football Conference Defensive Player of the Year in 2009 and was selected in the sixth round of the 2010 NFL Draft by the Buffalo Bills. Batten finished third in the voting for the 2009 Buck Buchanan Award, which honors the top defensive player in the FCS ranks.

In 2010, Currier continued his work with the Jackrabbit defensive line. As a unit, the SDSU front four accounted for 23 tackles for loss and 11.5 sacks. Defensive end Zacharia Bowers was honored as a member of the MVFC All-Newcomer Team.

During the 2011 season, Currier aided in the development of interior lineman Andy Mink, who led the team with 8.5 tackles for loss and six sacks, while ranking second on the squad in total tackles with 75.
