Rams will be sold to Illinois businessman Shahid Khan

Khan, 55, is the president of Flex-N-Gate Corp., an auto-parts manufacturer based in Urbana, Ill. Khan has lived in the Champaign-Urbana area for more than 40 years and is married with two adult children. Khan is a graduate of the School of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering at the University of Illinois.

One of the reasons the Rosenblum's sold to him is his commitment to keep the team in the STL.

If they draft Teblow, and for some reason he starts right away, they'll be packing up the semis sooner than anyone expected. 8-)
