KNOXVILLE BLUE COATS

Named after Anti-slavery ran high in Tennessee the Blue Coats join the ABA's AAA system. Following the colors and design style of the parent club.

Since the Nashville Blues were 100% used from someone else I had a hard time matching the font so the script in the logos is a little botched; I may revisit this later on to better perfect it; for now it'll do.
