Actually it is starting to seem more like Banjou now that I think about it.

We can discern that Scarecrow is definitely a ghoul since none of the other ghouls near him picked up a human smell. There are also not that many big buff guys who are ghouls that we know of. There's Amon who we know is definitely not Scarecrow, there's Banjou, Yomo, Shachi, Tatara and Noro.

We can rule out Tatara, Noro and Shachi because for one, it wouldn't make any sense, and they are all part of Aogiri (with Shachi being an ally), so it would make no sense for any of them to be on a solo mission.

It seems unlikely that it's Yomo either, because it wouldn't make any sense for him to wear that outfit, and he's also the silent type so he wouldn't be mumbling like Scarecrow does.

It seems like, on the assumption that Scarecrow is someone we know, it all seems to point to Banjou. I can see why Banjou would wear that outfit, so he could hide his identity from Aogiri, especially from Ayato and Hinami. Banjou is also one of the few characters in the series who doesn't have his own original mask and ghoul identity. If Scarecrow does turn out to be Banjou then it looks like he had to leave Hinami since he couldn't go back to the Aogiri Tree after betraying them.

It makes me wonder if Banjou, Nishiki, Touka and Yomo are all still allies after the time skip, even though Nishiki is doing solo missions and it could be the same for Banjou if he is in fact Scarecrow.
