Am I the only one who is bothered by how the rifleman holds his gun?

... was literally the first thought scrolling past the first collage of logos was, why is the mascot holding the rifle that way?
Makes sense, if they have a bayonet. If not, it does not look like a rifleman "at the ready", so to speak.
I mean, it's heritage-- American heritage. The mascot needs the rifle "shouldered" and looking down the rifle's top edge (we all know what that's called but if I say it regular, I'll prob be canceled, lol)

Agreed though I’m not aware that we use the bottom left anymore. I’d say the 4th most common besides the other three is the Vols script.

Pers fav. Need a white football helmet with black grill with this logo, sometime when we go all white.
And need a solid, mostly white with seldom black accents to rep as the "storm troopers", no orange folks (at all; imagine a white helmet with black grill and Power T with mostly white digs/black trim & #s), but I digress...

In 2013 I was visiting Banff National Park in Alberta Canada wearing a shirt with this script on it. I noticed a man that kept looking at me. He finally walked over to me and spoke. I don't remember where he said he was from, but he barely spoke English. A lady that was with him acted as interpreter when needed. He ask me about the shirt and i told him it was the nickname for the University of Tennessee. He said it was his actual name. He told me when he was able, he was going to order a shirt for himself. I thought that was pretty cool to have VOLS as your name.

I think that's supposed to be a hunting rifle. You wouldn't have a bayonet on that. That's a musket thing. Given that Davy is running around in frontier dress it would be even weirder for him to have a musket with a bayonet.

to be truly period accurate (since discussion is devolving, so when in Rome) we need a Rifleman standing over a dead deer carcass, with knife in mouth and red eyes. This would would make most sense moving forward.
