No, it wasn't. Any hand movement in college is considered a fair catch. I believe they made that rule after Louisville returned a punt for a TD when their guy waved his arms, the gunners stopped assuming it was for a fair catch instead of telling his guys to get away from the ball, and he returned it untouched for a TD.
Isn't it a penalty on the return guy if he attempts to return a kick after signaling a fair catch?
Add another one to the list.

Yes it is, but you usually only see them call that when the guy obviously signal for a fair catch (arm over head) and not for the any arm movement "fair catch" signal.
