Seems like it should be closer to the population centers.
If the population centers gave a shite, it could have been. The HOF had no physical home of its own for over 50 years before the new museum was built. Before that, NSU donated space in their auditorium to display some of the materials, and it took them to 1971 or 72 to do it.
Literally anyone else could have stepped up and provided a space from 1959 or so to 1972 or so and would probably have the HOF in their city.
But they didn't.

It was in Prather Coliseum for years, and was pretty much pictures in glass enclosures of the athletes.
