Playing career

That same year, he helped the Golden Eagles break nine 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). He was the recipient of the Robert Hill Johnson Award. He graduated from Tennessee Tech with a bachelor's degree in interdisciplinary studies.

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.

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.

Gardner–Webb
On December 14, 2019, Lamb was named the head coach at Gardner–Webb University, replacing Carroll McCray. Going into his first season, his recruiting class was ranked third in the Big South Conference. Included in this class were four three-star recruits.

In his third season, three milestones were reached for the program. For the first time since 2003, the team won the Big South conference title. They clinched an automatic bid to the FCS Playoffs, their first playoff appearance as an FCS team and first as a program since the 1992 NAIA playoffs. Their best season in 19 years would be further added on with a win over Eastern Kentucky in the first round of the playoffs, their first FCS playoff win in program history.

In his fourth season, three more milestones were reached for the program. They finished as Big South–OVC co-champions with UT Martin, but they would get an automatic bid to the FCS Playoffs from a 38–34 win over the Skyhawks on Oct. 28, 2023. This would be the first time they would have back-to-back conference titles and winning seasons since 2002–03. This would also be the first back-to-back postseason appearances in program history.
