Jamieson coached the Bison to 24 wins in the program's first 28 games, including upset wins over established programs at large schools like Penn State, Delaware and Villanova. He accomplished this with teams composed entirely of un-recruited walk on players. He ended his Bucknell coaching career with 248 wins to rank 15th among all Division I collegiate lacrosse coaches in victories. Jamieson led the Bison to seven championships in three different conferences, including four straight Patriot League titles from 2000 to 2003 despite being a non-scholarship program.

Jamieson coached 19 All Americans and 13 players who were invited to play in the north–south lacrosse game. 111 of his players earned All Conference distinction.
In addition to his responsibilities as Bucknell's Head Lacrosse Coach Jamieson also served for 25 years as an Assistant Coach to the football team.
In 1983 Jamieson also became the co-founder and first head coach of what was to become the Iroquois National Team, a team composed of Native American players. As coach he took the team to the 1984 World Lacrosse Games in Los Angeles and to England to play the England national team. He later served as executive director of Iroquois National Lacrosse and is an Emeritus member of that organization's board of directors. In that capacity he took the team to the World Lacrosse Championships in Perth, Australia.
Seven organizations have inducted Jamieson into their Halls of Fame, including the Pennsylvania Lacrosse Hall of Fame, the National Native American Hall of Fame, and the Intercollegiate Men's Lacrosse Coaching Association Hall of Fame.

Gelston Award as the person who "most represents the symbol of the game of lacrosse", "Man of the Year' for college lacrosse (one of only five men since 1944 to receive the award twice), Division I Coach of the Year, USILA Service Award, Iroquois Nationals Lifetime Achievement Award, Spirit of Tewaarton Award, Patriot League Coach of the Year, IMLA "Creators Award", Native Vision "Spirit" Award and the Bucknell Bison Club Award for Contribution to Bucknell Athletics.
