Was he serious about that? I thought it was all a running joke...

Why in the hell would a Vandy coach take the time of day to call out an anonymous message board poster?

It was a Twitter deal if I remember correctly. Wu must have gotten outta line on the Twitter with one of their coaches.

I never remembered any of that stuff, I don't think it ever happened tbh. If it did, Wu has a lot more jimmy rustling skill than I had originally imagined.

I'm just messing with him. I saw that he got bent earlier and i was gonna get him fired up again. I do remember some so called UT fan saying something about a vandy coaches wife. It was way out of line but that is all I remember.

It is actually easier than you might think... but you have to pay attention to very subtle things and what people actually say. Probably the most prevalent error interviewers make is to "hear" a person say what the interviewer wants them to say rather than what they actually said.

I start with pretty simple questions then target things in their answers for follow up.

"Why do you want this job?"

"Describe someone you felt you worked well with"

"Tell me about a time you had conflict with someone at work and how you handled it".

"Tell me what you think makes a good supervisor... someone you enjoy working for" (If they say someone who pats them on the back alot then that's a concern since they may be "needy". I need folks who find satisfaction in doing the right thing)

Basically, I ask starter questions like these... then start picking the answers apart by asking more questions... sorta like I do you guys here sometimes except it doesn't come off antagonistic in person. I want to know things that the applicant did not come to the interview to tell me about how they relate to other people and their attitude about work.

Most companies do not hire that well. I've worked for a few companies now. Oddly enough, most companies spend little time training their managers to interview and hire. It took me time to really start noticing the important things. It is similar to knowing how to "do" college. What's important? What's not? What do you study multiple times? What do you glance over?

Thank you for your answer. I respect you a lot on this forum, and what you have to say. I've learned a golden nugget today. I see the most important part is knowing what you want and finding the person who fits the description. You basically try to ask the right questions and how the answer fits what you want. I see now.

Was that the episode where Kramer was acting like a dog?

I have posted this opinion many times here on VN

Message boards are no place for parents or family members of players. Way too much pain and heartache is inevitable. The negative far exceeds the positive.

It completely can sour a persons impression of a fan base(see Arian Foster). I would even say if the Manning family had been here things would have soured for them. The vocal minority of idiots don't need to be heard by family members.

The idiots may be the minority but they are always the loudest and the most persistent in their opinions.
