The Admirals are owned by Chris Glisson, former co-owner of fellow ABA teams the Smoky Mountain Jam and Tri-City Racers. Glisson hopes to set up a similar arena for the Admirals in time for the 2016 season.

The Admirals finished their inaugural 2009-2010 season with 13 wins and 7 losses, with an 122-117 loss to North Division rivals Chicago Steam in the Division Championship Game. Captain and forward Dominick Melton was named to the ABA East All Star team, with Odgra Bobo, Antonio Griffin and Brandon Ball all honorary mentions in All Star voting.

For the 2012 season, the Admirals joined the Premier Basketball League.

In October 2014, the Admirals signed Bob Wegner, who at 7'8" has claimed to be the world's tallest professional athlete.

In 2015 and 2016, the Admirals were back to back PBL Midwest Champions.

On March 8, 2017, It was announced that the team has been sold and will move to Warren, Michigan.
