Because it would be considered an attempt to trick the defense in a moment that is designed for player safety. And when you blur the line between a fair catch signal and a different type of signal, you risk your intentions being misinterpreted.

          You are ALLOWED to do that, that is why youve seen that. - tigerman81 MU - 10/23 18:40:21
          Watch they will change the rule after the season (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 10/23 13:32:30
               If they do change it then I would teach my punt return team - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 10/23 14:44:32
          Screw Iowa, but while it may be technically correct - alwaysright MU - 10/23 12:52:14
               Well, he was pointing with his right hand and waiving people - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 10/23 13:18:41
                    Because it is illegal to use a fake fair catch signal - alwaysright MU - 10/23 13:29:26
                         He wasn’t trying to fake a fair catch signal - wu-tangtiger MU - 10/23 13:36:29
                              It doesn't matter if he was intending to call a fair catch - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 10/23 14:00:40
                                   It was not a normal get away signal. - alwaysright MU - 10/23 14:32:48
                                        This is why I bet we see a change related to this rule - wu-tangtiger MU - 10/23 14:35:42
                                             You are clueless. The NCAA isn't changing a long - tigerman81 MU - 10/23 18:13:31
                                                  It’s easy to argue that he didn’t signal anything - wu-tangtiger MU - 10/23 19:17:35
                                                       No its not easy to argue that. - tigerman81 MU - 10/23 20:36:19
                                                            There should be an actual penalty for an invalid signal. - alwaysright MU - 10/24 07:23:08
                                                            It seems to me that it should be that if you don't make a - JeffB MU - 10/23 21:38:52
                                                                 Leaves too much chance for ambigulity. - tigerman81 MU - 10/23 22:27:01
                                                            Yes you can argue that he wasn’t waived - wu-tangtiger MU - 10/23 20:47:46
                                                                 LOL, did he or did he not waive his hand?(nm) - tigerman81 MU - 10/23 22:21:41
                                                                      According to him no - wu-tangtiger MU - 10/24 07:35:34
                                                                           It doesn't matter what the hell he said he did, it shows on - tigerman81 MU - 10/24 11:15:40
                                   I agree, correct call. And why would a rule change be ... - Tigerborn MU - 10/23 14:10:17
                                        The NCAA usually addresses these - wu-tangtiger MU - 10/23 14:19:27
                                             That is because there wasn't a fair catch signal and nobody - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 10/23 14:21:35
                                                  Here are his words again. According to him - wu-tangtiger MU - 10/23 14:31:30
                                                       He never said he wasn't trying to waive people off. You - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 10/23 14:40:55
                                                            He never said he was. This is why I am betting a rule change - wu-tangtiger MU - 10/23 14:44:21
                                                                 I don't believe that is true. Watch #17 for Iowa in this - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 10/23 14:46:29
                                                                      I might buy what you are saying on 17 - wu-tangtiger MU - 10/23 14:52:56
                                                                           I could see maybe coming up with a deliberate get - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 10/23 14:59:15
                                                                                Agree the NCAA to to remove the refs having to - wu-tangtiger MU - 10/23 15:26:35
                                                       naturally running to the football.. lol - bluesox7 MU - 10/23 14:37:17
                                   I am betting we see a change in that rule - wu-tangtiger MU - 10/23 14:07:07
                                        I haven't heard him say that. What was he pointing at? - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 10/23 14:20:57
                              That is correct, he was not trying to, but what he did - alwaysright MU - 10/23 13:39:20
                                   You've never seen a returner point to where the ball is - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 10/23 15:01:28
                                        Never point with one hand and wave the other around, no - alwaysright MU - 10/23 15:57:39
                                             If you watch this at the very beginning he is pointing with - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 10/23 16:25:23
     no, but the rule needs to change(nm) - tigerinhogtown STL - 10/23 12:29:09
          If you are motioning for people to get away, and then - bluesox7 MU - 10/23 12:42:25
     No (nm) - samclemens MU - 10/23 12:23:42
     Correct call - Iam4Mizzou MU - 10/23 12:16:09
     no(nm) - MizzouAstro MU - 10/23 12:15:32
     according to the rule, no - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 10/23 12:12:57
     No I just think you cannot do something like that - Genco98 MU - 10/23 12:11:21
     If the returner motions for his players to get away - hou4mu MU - 10/23 12:10:55
          He wasn't penalized. The ball was return the point where it - tigerman81 MU - 10/23 20:42:00
          I didn't realize that was the actual rule - Eggs MU - 10/23 12:18:18
               Maybe a better question is has it been called consistently - XRob MU - 10/23 13:14:43
                    that is my issue with it. Tennessee fans claim it was - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 10/23 14:26:46
     No(nm) - TigerMatt STL - 10/23 12:08:25
     no. If you want to return the ball, don't make any - CulturedDan MU - 10/23 12:07:54
