a feature on Jordan Farmar in the Daily News. You gotta love it when a highly touted incoming freshman acknowledges that he might be better off if he had a backup trying to take away his playing time. Plus he says, "Sometimes I wish [Coach Howland] would be even more critical." To say that it is refreshing to hear about this type of attitude would be a huge understatement.

Other previews from the Daily Bruin, Daily Breeze, Orange County Register, and LA Times.

Plus a nice story about some folks from the online community raising and donating a good sum of money to the widow of a man who died in the January 26 Metrolink accident in Glendale. The man, Henry Kilinski, was a big Bruins fan and a regular contributor to the message boards at bruinreportonline.com.
