The man in the middle of Virginia Academy’s defense takes center stage this Friday afternoon. Badi who is one of the top linebackers in the state, announced his intention to transfer from Centreville this past March to the Patriots and he also reclassified to 2025. The transition for not only Badi but many other kids to a new program like this one may be tough, but if you saw the work Coach Woods and his staff have been putting in this off-season you  know they are in good hands! This young man is a natural born leader, I saw it up close when he was firing up his teammates at the 7 on 7 events at Flint Hill in June. I cannot wait to see his progression and the strides he takes this fall, knowing him the hard work has been more than put in and he is eager to make his first big hit for the Patriots.

Just as I was discussing Kristopher Jones Kristopher Jones 6'2" | 225 lbs | LB Mountain View | 2024 State VA transfer, Adam Badi Adam Badi 5'11" | 205 lbs | LB Centreville | 2024 State VA announced he was not only transferring to the Virginia Football Academy, but also reclassifying to 2025. Talking about this at length with a few sources in the state, the VA football Academy located in Ashburn is on the rise, do not be surprised if my kids enroll their shortly. Badi is a playmaker and with him reclassifying has a chance to be the top recruits in the class of 2025, all the best to this wonderful young man on his next steps.

An instinctive sideline to sideline linebacker for the Wildcats, Badi is a force in the middle. Standing at 5’11 and 205 lbs. Badi can cover a lot of ground defensively, you can see in his tape the speed he possesses. I expect this young man to continue to thrive on defense, but also special teams, he is a playmaker in that department too. http://www.hudl.com/video/3/14217776/638985aa3deb6409c8c1caca
