This isn't to say ICC is impossible with low GSs. I'm sure everyone here has done ICC with a low geared toon and with other low geared toons. The real question is, how many people found 9 other people with 5k or less gearscores to go into ICC without knowing them at all and successfully did 12/12? With the buff or without.
No one has. It's always a special case if you go in with a low gearscore to do these runs.
I've simply quit puging. My main, and all my alts get in established runs. If I need a last minute run I go in some random pug, and guess what, when they ask for high GSs they usually make it 9/12 at least.
