Haven't you ever read the pertinent NCAA rules? They're posted above already in this thread if you'd like to give 'em a try.
AR5 says "strikes an opponent with the
hands...."
NCAA rule 4-23-6 says "an individual strikes an opponent with the
hand..."
In both cases, the act can be deemed flagrant.
Having a "closed fist" isn't a prerequisite to have a flagrant foul.
