Not sure about the Mens NCAA mechanic - but on the Women's side we do not use the "bird-dog mechanic" and we do not use preliminary signals at the spot of the foul, we do use verbal communication ie: "Blue 22 hold, white 15 shooting 2" or "Red 10 push, white ball oob" and indicate the spot where the ball will be inbounded. The only time you should have a preliminary foul signal at the spot would be on a pc or team control foul or as the lead on a block/charge (T & C should just have a closed fist in case the L comes up with a preliminary, but then if nothing from the L , T or C should indicate block or charge. T & C just have to be patient with their block/charge signal to avoid the blarge.)
