James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.
Sherrod wont play in the upcoming season for the Bulldogs because he received a far more enticing offer from the Whiffenpoofs. Yep, Whiffenpoofs.

Becoming a member of the prestigious singing group allows a student to travel the world, visiting everywhere except Antarctica in 2015, according to the New Haven Register.
This is a stern shot to our athletic values as a nation. What’s next? Glee clubs taking over NASCAR? What about jazz ballet invading football? Slippery slopes are real people.
Well it’s all downhill from here. Might as well enjoy sports while we can and listen to some smooth Whiffenpoofs jams in the process.
