No, I've never seen a "runner" give the FC signal.
But I can tell you this, should a runner raise his hand up down near the goal line, no way in hell am I flagging him for an Illegal FC signal.
Maybe a UC foul depending on what that hand was doing in the air, but no way is that technically an I-FC signal.
I'd probably give a runner no more than 10 yards down field after receiving the kick and I'd be watching the kick team players reaction. Additional, should he raise his hand up it better be high and be waving else I have nothing.
In case you didn't know, NCAA requires the play be killed at the spot if the illegal signal, but there is no yardage marked off.
