Beware with statements like "in the new high school and college format". MOST states have a completely different set of rules (FED) than NCAA. Two states, including mine - TX, use NCAA rules.

NCAA rules - The ball is NOT dead on a turnover. The guy was a moron for returning it - they had won the game without the return, and the possibility remained that he would fumble the ball and have it returned the other way for a tying score. But the ball was definitely live after the pick.
