Jim Jordan on accusations that he helped cover up sexual abuse: 'It's false'

"It's false," he told Fox News on Friday. "I mean I never saw, never heard of, never was told about any type of abuse. If I had been, I would have dealt with it."

Jordan was once assistant wrestling coach at Ohio State University, and following an NBC News report this week detailing accusations that he did not act as the team doctor allegedly abused students, he has faced a wave of questions about whether he did in fact ignore abuse. In the interview Friday, Jordan said his accusers were intentionally misrepresenting him.

"I know they know what they're saying is not accurate," Jordan said.
