Qadree Ollison had just finished up his redshirt freshman season at Pitt, eager to contribute as a running back once fall practice started. That’s when Quadree Henderson arrived, eager to play right away as a true freshman.
Ollison had never played with another Qadree. Henderson had never played with another Quadree. So when they first met, things got a little surreal.
"I don’t if you’ve ever met somebody with the same name as you, but it was kind of awkward, where you’re like, 'What's up bro, I'm Qadree and he’s like, 'What's up bro, I’m Quadree," Ollison said recently.
