Who are some quality rat breeders in/near Nashville, TN?

Hi, my name's Heather and I plan on getting two male rats to keep as pets. I would rather not own any rats at all than buy them from a pet store/ irresponsible breeder... *shudders*. So, I've been doing a lot (and I mean a LOT!) of research and I feel like I know enough about rats to be ready to keep them as pets. I have found, however, that no matter where I search (e.g. Google, Ask, Bing, Yahoo, etc.) the listings of reputable rat breeders in Middle Tennessee- or anywhere in Tennessee, for that matter- have come up a bit short. If you could post some links to quality breeders that take good care of their rats, I would be really grateful! Thank you!
