If the player is telling you he is on or off, get him there. I always ask. If they ignore me then I read where they are at. If they misalign then it is their problem.
As a WH I tell my wings to find out where the players are supposed to be and get them there. I hate 6 on the line fouls as I feel they are 99% preventable. If I am on a wing and I put a player in a spot then I will not hold it against him which is basically what you did Biscuit. The way I read your post, you stick a foot out and say line is here and then player lines up on that and then you flag him for it. I'd bet my house that kid told his coach that he went where you told him to go. Make it obvious to the kid. NFL officials do it, why not you.
