Before his NFL career, Lomax was a standout player at Portland State University, where he played under head coach Mouse Davis in the innovative "run and shoot" offense. During his college years, Lomax set numerous NCAA passing records, showcasing his ability to thrive in a high-octane offensive system. His success at Portland State earned him a spot in the College Football Hall of Fame in 1996, a testament to his remarkable collegiate career and lasting influence on the game.
Lomax's professional career was marked by his ability to consistently deliver strong performances, despite playing for a team that often struggled to find success.

Unfortunately, Lomax's career was cut short due to a hip injury, forcing him to retire after the 1988 season. Despite the premature end to his playing days, Lomax's contributions to the Cardinals and the NFL are still remembered fondly by fans and analysts alike.
