Post Grad Dilemna (IB)

Hey guys - just wanted to get input on this situation. 

Currently accepted an exploding offer at a MM bank out of a summer analyst position. The bank gets top dealflow but is a bit sweaty in nature. 

There was an option to defer the start date to Jan. 2023 and will be graduating this year. 

Was hoping to get some opinions on how to go about rerecruiting at BBs if I do choose this route. Would it be a good move to choose the deferred start date option and rerecruit in the summer after graduating? Would that timeline make sense? It seems the ship has sailed for full time recruiting this summer and this seems like a better option than reneging in terms of trying to maintain relationships. Not too sure how recruiting for full time after graduating works either.

Any advice would be appreciated guys, thanks!
