If you wanted to be really kind, you could meet with her, hopefully get a much better picture, and then suggest to her how she might improve her resume. If you meet with her and she's as flat as her resume, then if you want to be nice, you can write an information-only rec that makes it look like you didn't do your homework. I certainly wouldn't flower up her rec if you don't think she merits it or in a way that isn't pristinely true.

And of course, if she's really a mess, again to be kind you could suggest she start her freshman year and spend that year working on grades, extra-curriculars, etc. In general rushing as a freshman is the better choice, but that's not always the case.
