Wait for what you want. The right mos can make a huge difference in your life. Waiting a couple of months is nothing compared to 4 years of unhappiness. It’s your job to make sure you get what you want.

If you have the luxury of time wait until they offer what you want. Simple! Good luck.

If you don't want it, don't take it. As long as you are qualified and can pass a security clearance background check, you can wait until it's available.
PS. Your tags for First Army Div West and USARCENT do not remotely apply to the topic. I would take the two MOSs you are being presented with instead.

They are likely doing that because they got a message down from recruiting command that they NEED people in that job. The more people they can get to voluntarily accept that job, means one less person they have to involuntarily assign to it later. You don't have to take it. You are coming in as a fresh recruit so as long as your ASVAB scores support it, the military job market is yours to pick and choose. They will fill those slots they need with others that are more narrow in what they can choose from or that simply do not question and push.

Only your signature on the contract matters, don't sign it if you are not happy with your job offers. Wait it out, and stick to your guns.
