He’s Ohio University football’s all-time sack leader, and now, the namesake of a drink at an uptown coffee shop.
Brenen’s Coffee Cafe is serving up an espresso drink called "The Basham," named for Tarell Basham, the high-achieving Bobcat defensive end and possible NFL draftee. Per Twitter:

Next week, Basham could become the highest-drafted Bobcat of all time. The 6’4” Virginia native is projected to go in the third round. The draft begins next Thursday.
Basham was also the centerpiece of a humorous bit of marketing for OU Athletics in 2014. Watch him in “Tarell Basham: Office Enforcer.”
