This is a great casting choice for Glee! While he's not musical (that we know of) John Schneider is handsome and awesome which makes him the perfect choice to be Sam's dad on Glee. Most of you may remember him from his role as Clark's dad in Smallville.
TvLine:
Glee has tapped Smallville patriarch John Schneider to play the father of Chord Overstreet’s trouty mouthed crooner, TVLine has learned exclusively.
The gig reunites Schneider with Glee co-creator Ryan Murphy for the first time since they worked together on FX’s Nip/Tuck (where the Dukes of Hazard vet played porn impresario Ram Peters).
Schneider — who is booked for one episode at this point — make his Glee debut in this season’s eighth episode
