The Miami Herald: King, Ragone Land Sponsorship Deal
Quarterback D’Eriq King and linebacker Ryan Ragone, who share an apartment, have had their share of meals at the Sports Grill near campus. Both Hurricanes are from Houston and have a podcast called “The King and Ragone Show.” As of this week, it’s “The King and Ragone Show presented by Sports Grill,” as the restaurant has entered into a partnership with the players, who are now allowed to profit off their name, image and likeness because of recent state laws and NCAA rules. The podcast “is centered around the two football players from Houston playing in Miami and discussing life, football and family,’’ according to a Sports Grill release. “The partnership will include in-person events for fans to meet and hang out” with the players.

Best Chicken Wings – Sports Grill
The secret is in the name of the place. These wings are never exposed to the indignity of the fry basket. These babies are all grilled, and you’d be amazed at what that does for the flavor. The Miami Heat style wings – they have eight varieties – are a slam dunk.

Miami New Times: Best Chicken Wings 2020 - Sports Grill
Sports Grill is a longtime local favorite, so much so that it has seven locations spanning South Florida since the first one opened over 30 years ago. With a nondescript name like Sports Grill, this neighborhood spot is unassuming, but the wings are our pick for the city’s best. They offer eight different styles, from buffalo to barbecue to jerk, plus some signature recipes, like the Miami Heat and Dale Style wings. But the classic option, and house favorite for decades, is the special grilled wings. They’re dipped in a vinegar-based sauce, charbroiled with just the right amount of crispiness, then finished with a light brushing of Sports Grill’s mildly spiced secret sauce, with your choice of ranch or blue cheese dressing on the side. As far as COVID-friendly offerings go, the South Miami location on Sunset Drive has outdoor seating available and also offers takeout, so you can bring the taste of football season home this year.
