There is at least one reputable (it pains me to type that) source
locally that is stating that Franklin is currently the primary target. But he is also saying there is a big gap between him being the primary target and their being a deal in place.
I don't think it is a reach to say, the committee is very interested in Franklin and some contact between the parties has occurred, but that's about it right now.

There is NOT A SINGLE report that is reputable about Franklin coming to VT.

"Could be" is a speculative phrase masquerading as fact.
