Reneging on EB in Westcoast for BB in NYC?

Since recruiting for EB's on the Westcoast start in March/April and BB's in NYC start in the Summer, if someone were to get a EB offer from a top firm in the Westcoast in May but wants to go to NYC, do they have any options but to take the EB offer and then risk reneging or not taking the offer and risk not having an offer at all?

Need some advice as I am a top candidate at UCB looking to go to NYC but Westcoast recruiting is easier for us.
