 While sportswriter voters of other major sports' Halls of Fame openly debate their choices, the Naismith Hall process is not transparent.The Hall has also been criticized for a tendency to enshrine active collegiate coaches and relatively obscure players while omitting some accomplished players and coaches.Since 1959, 395 coaches, players, referees, contributors, and teams have been inducted, with the most recent class entering on September 8, 2018.
