Jim Wooldridge, head coach of the men’s basketball team, then took the stage along with three of his players. Unfortunately, he fumbled on the last names and hometowns of his players, causing a short-lived but nonetheless awkward rift.

He asked the crowd, “Do you know how good you guys have it here?” After the proud cheers and hollers of students died down, he proceeded to say that he had been all over the country and that “UCR is the best school I’ve ever been to.”

Oh my.  "I want you to welcome to the stage Johnny... Johnny... Basketball from Peoria; Seth Two-Shoes from... um, Riverside; and, well, Nike Shirt from Oregon.  We've got a great team this year!"

Forgetting the players' names like that is sort of troubling. I'm beginning to wonder if maybe Jim has early stage dementia resulting from his head injury while coaching at Kansas State.
