Lamb was a three-year starting quarterback for Tennessee Tech. In 2011, he led the Golden Eagles to their first Ohio Valley Conference championship victory in 36 years. That same year, he helped the Golden Eagles break 9 program records including points scored in a season (355), highest scoring average in a season (32.3 points per game), and most first downs in a season (238).

Coaching career.
Tennessee Tech.
In 2013, Lamb was hired as the quarterbacks coach at Tennessee Tech.
Mercer.
In 2014, Lamb was hired as the quarterbacks coach at Mercer. Lamb's focus while at Mercer was on player development. He helped the Bears' quarterbacks set a new program record for passing yards. He coached Mercer quarterback, John Russ, and played an instrumental part in his recognition on the CFPA FCS Offensive Player of the Year Watch List.
Tennessee Tech (second stint).
In 2018, Lamb was hired as the offensive coordinator at Tennessee Tech. During his stint at Tennessee Tech, he engineered a remarkable turnaround in the program's offense. In 2017 and 2018 combined, the Golden Eagles won just 2 games. During the 2019 season, with Lamb's assistance, the Golden Eagles improved their overall record to 6-6. In 2019, the Golden Eagles accumulated 348 total scoring points which was 58% greater than other scoring offenses in the Ohio Valley Conference. His achievements at Tennessee Tech could arguably be considered one of the greatest Division 1 football program turnarounds the Football Championship Subdivision has seen.
Gardner–Webb.
On December 14, 2019, Lamb was named the head coach at Gardner–Webb University, replacing Carroll McCray. Going into his first season at Gardner-Webb, his recruiting class is ranked third in the Big South Conference. Included in this class are four 3-star recruits.
