It was announced on Saturday afternoon that Indiana's All-American linebacker Tegray Scales has accepted an invitation to the East-West Shrine Game in St. Petersburg, Florida on January 20, 2018.

IU has also sent four coaches, Bill Ingram as a head coach in 1925 and '27, John Pont as an assistant in 1968 and head man in 1970, Lee Corso in 1983 as an assistant coach and Bill Mallory as an assistant coach in 1989 and head coach in 1992. Scales marks the fifth-straight Shrine Game that will feature an IU player (Ted Bolser '14, Collin Rahrig '15, Nate Sudfeld '16, Ralph Green in '17). Scales finished his IU career making 325 tackles, 46 tackles for loss, 18 sacks and eight interceptions in 48 games during his time in Bloomington.
