The infamous 'salute' isn't the whole story

It was just a simple salute.  As he raced into the end-zone, finally making the clutch play that the Wildcats needed, Adrian Hilburn lifted his hand up to his forehead and with that quick motion he put his team in a very bad position.  15 yards back to be exact.  For the moment it was just a simple movement directed towards the stands but once that yellow flag hit the ground Hilburn's salute became infamous.
