Is the fair catch signal valid?
The ball would NOT become dead if A/K catches behind the NZ in fed ball.

And, in NCAA ball the ball will remain life if A catches the ball behind the NZ so long as B didn't touch it beyond the NZ first.

And, as I understand it in NCAA ball if B gives a valid signal and catches it behind the NZ the ball does NOT become dead (4-1-3 g) and he may still advance.
