I searched public web records for Brian Hankins + college wrestling and Brian Hankins + wrestler.
What I found is interesting, but I have not found a reliable collegiate wrestling record for him.
There are online claims concerning a Brian Hankins having been a“Div-I wrestler” and a state champion high-school wrestler, but the result I found is on the Getbig bodybuilding forum and is written by another poster discussing claims attributed to Hankins. That is not reliable evidence that he actually wrestled NCAA Division I.
I found Brian Hankins accounts/content connected with bodybuilding and strength/strict-curl competition, including a YouTube result titled Brian Hankins Curl 75 Kilo.
Crucially, my searches did not turn up a college wrestling roster, NCAA result, tournament result, university athletics biography or contemporary newspaper record confirming collegiate wrestling.
So at this point I'd describe the Division-I wrestling story as an unverified claim rather than an established record.
If you mean the American Brian Hankins associated with bodybuilding/getbig, that's probably the person my results are picking up. If so, I can dig specifically through NCAA records, college wrestling archives and old newspaper/archive references for Brian Hankins, which would be a much better test of whether he genuinely wrestled at college level.
I searched specifically for“Brian Hankins” in connection with NCAA, collegiate wrestling and university wrestling, including NCAA domains.
Result
I cannot find an NCAA wrestling record for a Brian Hankins. My NCAA-specific searches returned no relevant record.
There is, however, a strong indication we're looking at the correct Brian Hankins: a public LinkedIn result identifies a Brian Hankins in North Carolina with a financial-services background and attendance at Western New England University School of Law. This overlaps with the individual discussed in the Getbig material.
What I found
Clarion Wrestling is unquestionably an NCAA Division I wrestling programme. Clarion's own NCAA material identifies the university's wrestling affiliation as NCAA Division I.
However, I have not found Brian Hankins in the Clarion wrestling records indexed online.
I searched combinations including:
“Brian Hankins” + Clarion wrestling
“Hankins” + Clarion wrestling
Clarion's official clariongoldeneagles.com athletics records
historical material from Clarion's own wrestling archive
Clarion does have detailed historical wrestling material online. For example, its archive contains individual tournament brackets identifying Clarion wrestlers and their opponents, and its more recent athlete pages give year-by-year collegiate wrestling records.
But those searches produced no Brian Hankins.
