When you're thinking about "advantage/disadvantage" based on where the player lines up, keep in mind that as a defensive safety or other defender not on the line of scrimmage, that slotback lined up at an angle looks like a back (i.e. eligible receiver). The fact that the slot lined up at an angle draws a flag at the varsity level (also keeping in mind that this is at the end of the season in a playoff game).
If the same had happened in a lower level game or even earlier in the season at the varsity level I probably would have talked to the player the first time it happened. After that he gets a flag.
