I don't think it would do well at all in the shade of the pecan once the pecan leaves expand enough to provide complete shade.

Other than sun and REGULAR watering, the blueberry "just" needs the right soil. That is one with the correct acidity (5.5 to 6 or so) and one that holds water well yet drains fairly well. 100% peat moss could work with regular watering and an acidic mulch of pecan shells or fine pine bark. A very large pot is also a great idea if you can water it daily.

I was telling my dad about my purchase ( which I placed in the sunniest place I could find back there!) and he said with blueberries, I have to have two to produce any fruit. He has one he is willing to dig up and send home with me- he bought two and one died. I know this is true with many fruiting trees- is he right about it in this case?

Your dad is right. Rabbiteye blueberries need to be grown with another variety (or 2 or 3 others) in order to set fruit. And, hopefully, you'll have bumblebees or wild bees around to perform the pollination function.
