WSU has been a consistently good basketball program for about 15 years, starting with Turgeon taking over and continuing with Gregg Marshall.

Side note: Marshall was my favored choice to replace Anderson when he left for Arkansas.

Over the last fifteen years, Wichita State has averaged 22 wins per season, while St. Louis has won an average of 21 wins a season in that time. So again, their performance has been quite comparable.
In addition, before Wichita State's final four appearance, there was no discernible difference between WSU and SLU's success in the postseason.
