Adams was suspended ahead of Texas Tech's Big 12 tournament opener after the school said it learned of an incident in a coaching session when Adams tried to encourage a student-athlete to be more receptive to coaching by quoting a Bible verse about workers, teachers, parents and slaves serving their masters.
