All-Time IU Scholly Players who Never Suited Up

[Stuhoo]

With Parker Stewart's departure, thought it might be interesting to list the all-time team for players who signed to play at IU on scholly, but never suited up in a game. 

Starting Five:

C: Guy Marc Michel

PF: Larry freakin' Bird

SF: Josh Smith

SG: Bud Mackey

PG: Parker Stewart

sub: Ron Patterson

 

Am I missing any?

[Magnanimous]

Did Devin Ebanks and Tu Holloway sign?

[Josh]

Coach Knight thought Kei Madison would be a nice piece on his next title team

[Trish]

DANTE EXUM!

And on this topic, this is bringing back memories of the 2010 NCAAT. Jordan Crawford and Holloway lead Xavier to the Sw16, Armon Bassett leads 14th-seeded Ohio over Georgetown, and Ebanks helps West Virginia get to the Final Four...

Remember we thought our team was going to be headlined with Dante Exum and Thon Maker? Fun times

Lawrence Funderburke doesn't really qualify, but he's who comes to mind of one of the biggest clusters.

It’s too bad Cem Dinc wound up playing those 12 collective minutes on the floor, spread out over those 3 unforgettable games back in ‘05-‘06. Most incredible 3 total career points these eyes have ever seen. If not for those 3 games/12 minutes/3 points - Cem Dinc would be the headliner of this group for sure. I mean, Larry Bird was great and all, and he went on to have a fantastic career and everything, but I’m sorry, he just did not possess Dinc’s length. I’d have Bird as a close second to Dinc in this alternate universe where Cem Dinc never makes it onto the floor for cream & crimson.

Trey Lyles committed to Indiana but was too young to sign.

Wasn't his name Drummer?

[Jam]

Yes, sorry. You’re right. I was trying to remember if he qualified. Think he signed either a Big 10 or national letter but got enticed to NAIA Gardner Webb

"Slammin" Sammy Drummer as I recall - ended up at Ball State.

Edit: I stand corrected.  He didn't play for BSU, but was from Muncie...

Just from memory, Gardner Webb to Georgia Tech than a short career with the Globetrotters
