It's just as well they did it now because, one way or another, Adrian Heath was going to be fired as the head coach of Orlando City.
Longtime University of Florida Athletic director Jeremy Foley has a philosophy when it comes to getting rid of coaches: "What must be done eventually should be done immediately."
And that's what Orlando City management did less than halfway through Heath's second season as the coach of an MLS expansion franchise: They fired him immediately instead of letting him roast on the rotisserie they created for him.
