Small shank euph mouthpiece

I have a student that I believe needs a larger mouthpiece than his current 6 1/2 AL. His school's euph is a small shank. Are there some mouthpieces out there that have larger cup/rim/backbore for small-shank horns? With his facial structure and embouchure, larger will be better, I think.

Most of the mouthpieces mentioned are deeper but just barely bigger than a 6-1/2 in rim size, and it's likely he needs a larger rim, not just a deeper cup. I will be in Knoxville doing some teaching on Thursday February 6 if your student would like an evaluation for his appropriate mouthpiece size.
