Golf Management delayed opening Volusia until they were comfortable that it was playable AND that opening it would not damage the course. It is heavily overseeded to compensate for the base bermuda not filling in optimally. When the overseed dies out this spring, they may need to close it to let the bermuda catch up. It's a balancing act. If you keep the overseed going, it shades the bermuda so it delays growth. If you kill off the overseed, the bermuda coverage isn't enough for good play. Just have to wait and see.
