Does F14 support USB 3.0?

As far as I know there is no difference to the controller interface with the
host between USB 1/2 or 3. There IS a difference between controller and
device, but it is backward compatible with USB 2.

One of the things I haven't run across yet is if controllers fall back to USB
2 for all devices if it detects even one USB 2 device.

There are different host controllers but Linux was the first to support USB 3.0, since kernel 2.6.31 and it should be a loadable module like nearly everything else in Fedora at this point. Provided you have hardware that can use it of course.
