At least two of Florida's key players will be back for the 2004-2005 season.

Gators coach Billy Donovan said Tuesday that forward David Lee and guard/forward Matt Walsh have decided to remain in Gainesville for their senior and junior seasons, respectively. The status of point guard Anthony Roberson, however, is still undetermined.

"David and Matt Walsh, their minds are made up and they'll be back," Donovan said in his first meeting with the media since the Gators' 75-60 loss to Manhattan in the first round of the NCAA Tournament last Thursday. "But in terms of Roberson, I just feel like right now ... I don't think he's made a decision one way or the other."

Donovan did say that Roberson has "given me every indication that he wants to be back here," but the All-SEC first-team selection has not given Donovan a definitive answer. Donovan said he would help Roberson research his possible NBA Draft position, and would support whatever decision he made.

"If Anthony Roberson is making a decision in terms of what's best for him, if he does decide to do that [leave early], I will be behind him 100 percent," Donovan said.

"My job as a coach and mentor is to try to be there for him."
