Tulsa is hiring East Tennessee State head coach Tre Lamb to be the Golden Hurricane’s next head coach, according to multiple reports.
Lamb was at ETSU for one season. He led the Buccaneers to a 7-5 record, including a 5-3 mark in Southern Conference play.
Lamb was previously the head coach at Gardner-Webb, which made impressive strides during his time there.
The Runnin’ Bulldogs were 2-2 in the spring of 2021 and 4-7 during the fall of that year. Then Lamb, who was Tennessee Tech’s offensive coordinator before, led the Runnin’ Bulldogs to their first Big South championship since 2003 by going undefeated in conference play. Lamb was the conference’s coach of the year in 2022.
In 2023, the Runnin’ Bulldogs were Big South/OVC co-champions and reached the FCS playoffs again.
Lamb replaces Kevin Wilson, who was 7-16 overall and 3-12 in AAC play before being fired.
