It makes perfect sense that he's a nonbender. If you assume that the passing on of bending is totally genetic (taking out the influence of the spirits and such) then Katara would have been able to pass on non-bending because her family has non-benders in it. So she would have carried genes for both bending and non-bending. I believe the spirits have something to do with the whole process as well though
