I think improvised signals is a growing trend in college hoops, perhaps even HS ball. At least around here, we are reminded to use "approved" signals in HS ball, but the college guys have started to stray away.
Sometimes it helps calm a coach it an improvised signal. I see it a lot with hits to the head. Coach may have been watching the body or the hands, and when he hears a whistle but didn't see contact to either the body or the hands he wants to know why the whistle was blown. If you report the foul with a "hit to the head" and actually give a signal similar to such, the coach my shut up. I've used it and have seen it done and it works well, IMO.
Just go by what your assignor likes or I should say allows and go from there. Sometimes approved signals are all you need, and then again, sometimes you need to deviate.
